Victorian Furnishings . . . abound in the Peterson home. This view from the front parlor takes in the living room and a doorway glimpse of the kitchen. A number of articles shown here are older than the house.

Historic Collection . . . of old furniture includes a matching chaperone's chair and loveseat which were used by the first owners of the house. The sideboard is considerably older than both.

Bedroom Setting . . . would have been as appropriate in 1874 as it is today. Twin beds are modern reproductions, especially chosen to blend in with the other pieces. This is the master bedroom, and once was partitioned off to form two rooms.
