The form also cites its architecture, a Gothic Revival house later updated with Queen Anne features.","narrative":"Built in 1854 on a 0.6-acre lot at 629 Liddle Lane in Wyoming, Ohio, this two-and-a-half-story house of quarry-cut, rock-faced ashlar was home to Robert Reily, who is considered the founder of the separate Village of Wyoming. Reily, son of a noted Cincinnati pioneer, retired early from business at age 31 and settled on this estate, known as Twin Oaks. On April 4, 1862, townspeople gathered at the house to organize and name the hamlet, and Reily invited women to take part and vote, an early step for Ohio women's suffrage. He then entered Civil War service as lieutenant colonel of the 75th Ohio Volunteer Infantry, later commanded it, and was mortally wounded at Chancellorsville in 1863. Originally Gothic Revival, the house was later given Queen Anne features, including a corner tower with a pyramidal roof, a gabled pavilion with hammer beam trusswork, and an ornamental iron porch. Post-World War II housing now surrounds it.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Gothic Revival/Queen Anne","criteria":["A","B","C"],"status_note":"Used as a residence; interior and exterior condition listed as excellent.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:53:14.324488-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_OH/86001640.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/86001640/2b062711ed-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/86001640/2b062711ed-1600.webp","licence":"Public domain","author":"Nyttend","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Twin_Oaks,_Robert_Reily_House.jpg\" rel=\"noopener\">Nyttend</a>, Public domain, via Wikimedia Commons","source_page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Twin_Oaks,_Robert_Reily_House.jpg"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/71986406","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twin_Oaks_(Wyoming,_Ohio)","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q7858246"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/ohio/hamilton-county/reily-robert-house-86001640/"}
