Minto House (1869), 841 Saginaw Street S, (NR)

The oldest of the three Minto houses, this vernacular residence is not in its original location and has been elevated to provide for a full basement. Both the fireplace and dining room sideboard are additions made by later generations. John Minto was an important figure in the pioneer establishment in Salem. See photograph of this house in 1991.(SCAN)
