Notes
  • Significance: James A. Garfield National Historic Site was the mentor, Ohio, home of James A. Garfield, the twentieth president of the United States. Garfield purchased the site in 1876, (then a 118-acre farm) and added 40 additional acres in 1877. The farm included a small one and one half story house constructed circa 1831-1832. Although small improvements were made, it was not until the spring of 1880 that Garfield enlarged the house to a spacious two and one-half story home. It was from this house that Garfield conducted his famous and successful "front porch" campaign for the presidency in 1880, which the became known as "Lawnfield." A small former tenant house located behind the main house, outfitted as a library, served as campaign headquarters. Four years after the assassination of President Garfield in 1881, the home was again enlarged to include a memorial library to the slain President. This 1885 addition to the house was accompanied by the construction of a tenant house, a windmill/pumphouse and gas holder. A new carriage barn was built in 1893.
