Canandaigua Historic Society called it the “Lapham House” because a former U.S. Senator purchased and lived at the home from 1850-1865. A title search and transfer from “Supervisors of Ontario County to R. Wells” suggests the house was built in 1814.

Elbridge G. Lapham was born in Farmington, New York, in 1814. Lapham grew up in the area and attended the Canandaigua Academy. He initially pursued a career in civil engineering before transitioning to law and later entering politics. In 1881, he was elected U.S. Senator from New York and served from 1881-1885, succeeding Roscoe Conkling.  His cousins include Nathan Lapham, Christopher Lloyd, and Susan B. Anthony.
