Island History -
In 1870 this house was
owned by Nicholas Smith as shown on the 1870 Census and the 1874
Atlas map of Erie Co. Information from the Hamilton Collection
indicates it was given to Smith by Addison Kelley. The 1865 Nunan
map cites the property as part of Addison Kelley's large holdings in
Lot 9. As the only stone mason living on the island from 1865
through 1880, Smith undoubtedly had a part in the design and/or
building this house as well as most, if not all, the stone houses
that were built on Kelley Family property during these years. A list
of these houses and their dates are as follows:
Frederick Kelley Residence, Addison Road, 1862
Frank Kelley Tenant House, E. Lake Shore, 1860
Chas & Ed. Kelley Tenant House, Division Street, 1860
Julius Kelley Residence, Water Street, 1666
Frank Kelley Residence, Addison Road, 1881
Frederick Kelley Tenant House, Woodford Road, 1860
Nicholas Smith and his wife had emigrated from Bavaria in 1858
coming to Kelleys Island sometime after 1860. By 1870 he was already
well established in his trade, as the year's schedule for the
products of industry finds he had cut 2000' of stone, and had on
hand $400 in materials and tools. He continued to work in stone
until 1910, when, at the age of 80 he had turned to grape growing.
He lived all these years on Woodford Road. Smith may have been the
author of an article in "The Islander" discussing the efficiency of
various building techniques on the island.
