Pershing's home is so similar to my family home that was burned by arsonists in 2014 that I almost started to cry when I saw this picture. The main difference is that our home had a full, two-story, Queen Anne bay instead of just the small protrusion here. We also had more windows.

Wonder what its date of construction was. The oldest part of our Huntt house was in the rear, ca. 1840. In 1872, great-grandpappy turned a story-and-a-half house into a two-story plus attic one by raising the roof and creating a section almost identical to the porch block shown here. In 1905, his widow added the Queen Anne bay, which was actually one huge parlor downstairs and one huge bedroom upstairs.
