Martin Van Buren Parker House

Hello, Allen Brockway - As I gather from my notes, the couple I exchanged with lived in an adjoining town. They bought the house as an investment. It has been sold to an unnamed owner. I suggest that you contact the Johnson County (Kansas) Museum at www.jocogov.org/museum. Some years ago they featured the MVBParker home in their newsletter, ALBUM. Perhaps someone at reception would be kind enough to tell you who owns or lives in the house today.

Also, in Olathe, call 913-715-5000 at what I believe is also a museum connection. Try that number to see if someone there can share. The house is on the Naional list.

Good luck. Patricia Ross Parker

Hello, Allen Brockway - I have exchanged with the couple who bought the house and were restoring it. I shall have to dig through my archives and find their name and an email address, but I will get back to you when I find it. Patricia Ross Parker.
