DescriptionThe Fearing House provides a view of life in Marietta during the 19th century. Built in 1847 for Henry Fearing, the house is an example of Federal style architecture. Italianate influence is evident on the exterior of the 1870 addition. Furnished in a range on nineteenth century styles, the home represents the lifestyles of Marietta's middle-class during the Victorian era. As one of the city's prominenet citizens, Henry Fearing (1798-1894) donated the land for the Woman's Home and served as an advocate for the Temperance Movement. As a successful businessman, he developed property and owned an interest in a steamboat.
