Tours–no appointment needed–at the Historic Robert Jenkins House at 113 Warren Street in Hudson are available on Saturday, July 1st, 11am-2pm. Located in an Historic District, the 1811 house is on the National Register of Historic Places as Nationally Significant. Since 1900 it has featured a museum of local “books, pictures, relics and curios.” The house’s full public library, the only one in the City of Hudson until 1959, is now a genealogical and historical library, open to the public for research by appointment.
The Historic Robert Jenkins House is truly an “American Treasure,” evidenced by a Save America’s Treasures grant awarded in September 2021 by the Department of the Interior, National Park Service. The grant, funded by the Historic Preservation Fund, will help pay for the repair and restoration of the house’s slate roof, upper masonry and aging infrastructure.
