In 1870, John C. Collier built the house and turned the house into Male and Female College and added on to the house the added part got burned down, but nobody knows how it happened. After a few years, Mr. Collier moved and sold the house to Dr. McKnight. The house has been occupied to the McKnight's since 1909. Then Dr.McKnight met Mr. Blessing and they switched houses so that Dr.McKnight could walk to his office. Then it was a Funeral Home by the Blessings.
