402 S. SYCAMORE - BUILT 1876 (LOOK LEFT)

The earliest portion of this small cottage, now comprising a wing to the rear, had its entrance on Reagan Street and was the home of Matthew Welch, who was an Irish-born carpenter, and his wife Margaret, who was a native of Tennessee. The Sycamore Street facade was added by Welch around 1893. The house has served as a church for more than sixty years.
