Open May-September. Tours Welcome. Free Admission! Welcome to the LeRoy House, formerly the land office for the Triangle Tract. Enlarged in 1822, it became a residence for Jacob LeRoy, the land agent for the Triangle Tract and son of Herman LeRoy, the town’s namesake. Threatened by demolition, the house was donated to the LeRoy Historical Society in 1942 and is now on the National Register of Historic Places. Three floors are open to the public, and the rooms are furnished in different periods, reflecting the people who lived there. Visit the circa 1822 land office where Jacob LeRoy did business; the circa 1878 Front Parlor, Hanging in the Back Parlor, circa 1860, is a portrait of Marietta and Emily Ingham, who founded Ingham University. Between its founding in 1837 and its closing in 1892, 8000 women attended the university. The Kitchen, circa 1930, is furnished with period appliances. Plus much more to see!
