Notes
  • Significance: The house was built by Captain Charles Ames, an officer in the War of 1812, and one of the earliest pioneers of Northwestern Indiana. His family had lived in West Bridgewater, Plymouth County, Massachusetts since 1640. After the War of 1812, Captain Ames became associated with the Ames Shovel Works of Boston, a family enterprise. Like his cousin, William Cullen Bryant, he wrote poetry and kept a diary. In 1836 he brought his family to Indiana by way of the Erie Canal to Buffalo, and thence to Michigan City, Indiana by schooner.
