| Description | Owen Brown (1771-1856) built this house in 1834 for his daughter, Marian Brown Hand (1811-1894), and son-in-law Titus Hand (1806-1856). Blacksmith and War of 1812 veteran Aaron Auter (1786-1876) bought the property in 1836. Auter's son, George Auter (1823-1865), was involved in an altercation on Main Street in 1845. He was stabbed in the abdomen and subsequently fined for fighting. Former Hudson mayor George Veader (1803-1849) and his wife purchased the property in 1844. Sadly, during the winter of 1849-50, Veader and his three children died of various illnesses, forcing Mrs. Veader to sell the property to pay debts. Cornelius Campbell (1841-1902), a harness maker, bought the house at the turn of the century. |
