Where is the Octagon House?

Dear Editor:

I was wondering if you could shed any light on an octagon house that stood in Putnam County. I’m not sure of the town. I found a photo of it on Flickr:

I am working with Robert Kline on the (non profit) Octagon Inventory online with pictures and info to collect and preserve the history of 19th century octagon architecture. His website is at:

We especially are looking for a historic image of the house plus any data on it like time built, by whom, etc.

I am not sure of your policy regarding aiding nonprofit, historical websites but thought I would ask since several dozen historical societies and libraries have contributed information and vintage photos.

Any info would be appreciated and we would, of course, credit you as the source. We hope to catalog every 19th century octagon house built in the United States. Contact ModFrancie1966@ aol.com
