The Pettengill-Morron House Museum was built by Moses
Pettengill in 1868 in the Second Empire architectural
style, the house has 11 rooms. The museum contains a
unique collection of objects from several Peoria
families. In 1900 a colonial revival porch and
porte-cochere were added, giving the home a grand
Victorian appearance
Jean Morron acquired the property from the John Boyd
Stone family in 1953. Jean Morron owned the house until
her death in 1966. After Jean Morron’s death the house
and its contents were given to the Peoria Historical
Society. |
