Description:
|
"Dating from the first quarter of the 19th century, the Salt House represents one of the first homes constructed in the county. Its H-shaped plan, steep gables and facade portico make it a sophisticated and unique building for its early date. Edward Salt was a native of Berkshire, England. When he married a woman of Irish descent, he was disowned by his family, and came to the United States and settled in Berkeley County, Virginia. In 1796 his family moved to Bullskin Ohio, where Mr. Salt had charge of a ferry until his death in 1812. His son John purchased a tract of land in Tate Township and he and his brother Edward built this house. John Salt was primarily a trader and it is recorded that he made fifty-two trips to New Orleans by flatboat, returning thirteen times by foot through Indian territory. Legend states that as a child, Ulysses S. Grant was a frequent visitor at the Salt House, coming from his nearby home in Point Pleasant."
