Farnsworth married second Mary Ireland, granddaughter of John Jackson Jr., on 15 November 1853. They lived in this Queen Anne style house during the Civil War. We had a courtyard luncheon of sandwiches, potato salad, fresh garden ripened tomatoes with a fudge brownie topped with vanilla ice cream for dessert. While half of us ate lunch, the other half toured the home.
