The antebellum, federal style home was built circa 1850, years before Kansas became a state. Kansas became a territory in 1854, which began as a series of events unparalleled in American history. At the forefront of these events the first Territorial Governor of Kansas, Andrew Reeder, arrived to attempt a peaceful transition from frontier to statehood. The Governor resided in the home, which even today is still referred to as the Governor's Mansion.
