    The Greek Revival William Huffman house at 1064 Townline Road was built in 1845. Huffman purchased two parcels of land, one of 52 acres and the other of 60 acres in 1830 and 1831. In 1850 he and his wife, Harriet, had six children. He was a farmer. The property was sold to William Closs in 1866, after which it was resold several times. It was placed on the National Register in 2002. Richard Palmer blog.
