1890 Hannibal Home Built When Benjamin Harrison was President

So many homes in Hannibal, especially in the downtown area, have a rich history. This Hannibal house was being built in 1890 during the time when Benjamin Harrison was President of the United States.

I found this home on Realtor.com recently. It's 116 N 9th Street in Hannibal. It's a 2-bedroom, 1 1/2 bath home that dates back over 130 years. Check out some pics of the place.

For reference, here are some of the things happening around the world in 1890 when the builders were finishing this Hannibal home.

• According to Wikipedia, the Wounded Knee Massacre in South Dakota happened that year. 146 Native Americans and 25 US Cavalry soldiers were killed in that battle.
• 3 years later in 1893, New Zealand would be the first country to allow women to vote.
• It would be 3 years later in 1893 that the World's Fair would be held in Chicago.
• Idaho and Wyoming were admitted to the Union later in 1890.
• Benjamin Harrison was the 23rd President of the United States and was the grandson of the 9th President William Henry Harrison.

This Hannibal home became a reality before all these events. It appears the home has been available for awhile with current asking price being $89,000 as of this writing. If you enjoy being close to the downtown Hannibal area and have a flair for history, could be worth looking into.
