It is linked to her formative years amid evangelical revivals in western New York. It is also a rare, largely intact example of early nineteenth century stone and stucco vernacular construction in Henrietta.","narrative":"This farmhouse at 1099 Pinnacle Road in Henrietta, New York, was built in 1830 by Joseph Brown, a wheat farmer who settled in the town in 1819. Its main block is coursed fieldstone with brick infill, originally covered in stucco scored to resemble cut stone, and wings extend to the north. Stucco survives on the rear wall. Inside, original trim, doors, window glass, plaster, fireplaces and rough-hewn attic framing remain. The house was the childhood home of Antoinette Louisa Brown Blackwell, born in 1825, who became a women's rights activist and the first ordained female minister in the United States. Her family took part in the religious revivals of the burned-over district, which shaped her views on religion and women's rights. The significant period ends about 1840, when she finished at Monroe Academy. The house is also valued as a rare example of early stone and stucco building in a suburb that has otherwise been heavily developed.","period_of_significance":"ca. 1830 - ca. 1840","architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Federal","criteria":["B","C"],"status_note":"Continues in use as a single-family dwelling; the form notes some modifications, including early 1980s and 1988 remodeling of wings and interiors.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:50:45.677987-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_NY/89002003.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/89002003/0ce765c13f-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/89002003/0ce765c13f-1600.webp","licence":"CC0","author":"Ammodramus","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Blackwell_childhood_home_1.jpg\" rel=\"noopener\">Ammodramus</a>, <a href=\"http://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/deed.en\" rel=\"license noopener\">CC0</a>, via Wikimedia Commons","source_page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Blackwell_childhood_home_1.jpg"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/75318760","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antoinette_Louisa_Brown_Blackwell_Childhood_Home","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q4775589"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/new-york/monroe-county/blackwell-antoinette-louisa-brown-childhood-home-89002003/"}
