MARIETTA, Ohio (WTAP) - The Levi Barber House is a staple of the city of Marietta for nearly two centuries.
The house was home to the home’s namesake, who has many different accolades to his credit. Such as helping the formation of Monroe County, being the president of the Bank of Marietta, and serving two non-consecutive terms of congress.
All before retiring at an early age and settled in Marietta.
“He didn’t build this house until he was 52 years old. So, they lived in an adjoining property and then built this in 1829,” says resident, Ed Engle. “And then, unfortunately, he died in 1833 and his wife Elizabeth died in 1831.”
