824 CHURCH – GOTHIC REVIVAL
This house was built in 1858 by Thomas D. Bailey, a produce merchant and grain dealer. By 1862, Bailey no longer lived at the house and for the next nineteen years the house had a number of owners. In 1881, Prudence H. Hersey purchased the house and lived there with her two daughters, Harriet and Mary. Harriet married Amos Van Tassell and they lived at the house with Mrs. Hersey for many years. Amos Van Tassell was a salesman and later a clerk at the Beloit Savings Bank. Mrs. Harriett Van Tassell still lived in the house in the 1960s.
Although essentially vernacular in plan and profile, this L-shaped frame house is distinguished by a steeply pitched gabled roof on the north wing with elaborately carved lacy bargeboards and an unusual triangular louvered pediment over the paired second story window. These windows and pediments are distinctive to Beloit, and are found on another house, 629 Harrison, in the Near East Side District. This combination of detail is sufficient to transform the house from the pure vernacular into a unique version of the Carpenter Gothic. But the flat lintels, the simple frame porch, unornamented white clapboard, and regular fenestration have roots not in the Gothic Revival but in the frame vernacular of mid century.
