History of Case-Barlow House

In 1814 Chauncey Case (1775-1863) moved from Connecticut to Hudson with his wife Cleopatra (1778-1866) and their five children. Upon arrival, they moved into a log house on Lot 17. In 1831, they began constructing a home on the property. Case, who owned a brickyard, made the bricks that would go into the construction of what is claimed to be the first brick house west of Pittsburgh. After Case's death in 1863 the house and its land passed to Case's son Henry (1817-1890) and his wife Mary Lucia Goodman Case (1828-1909). While Henry had ownership of the farm he hired a farm hand by the name of Franklin F. Barlow (1858-1934), who would go on to marry Henry's 6th child, Harriet (Hattie) Case Barlow (1861-1898). Henry died in 1890 and the farm was passed down to F.F. Barlow and Hattie. In 1910 the farm was taken over by Henry Barlow (1885-1958) who married Isabel Sackett Barlow (1888-1964). In 1941 Henry retired to the village and gave his youngest son Donald C. Barlow (1915-2001) ownership of the farm, who retained ownership until the farm was sold to the Hudson community in the 1980's to use as a community center and historical home. All told, 5 generations of the Case-Barlows lived in the same house that Chauncey Case built in 1831.
