Aitken Farm House is an Italianate residence in Flint Township, Michigan. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on November 26, 1982.[1] DescriptionThe house has several excellent qualities of the Italianate style. The main portion of the house is two stories tall, with paired eavesline brackets, a hip roof, and a cupola. The cupola has delicate scrollwork brackets in the corners, rounded arch windows, and paired brackets under the eaves. The house has two additions with gable roofs and eyebrow windows, indicating Greek Revival architecture, so there is some speculation that those additions were earlier parts of the structure.[3] HistoryRobert P. Aitken (1819–1873) moved to Flint Township, Michigan from New York in 1842. He married Sarah J. Johnstone, also from New York, in 1843. The exact date of construction is not known, but is presumed to be after 1843. Aitken was a successful farmer, a Union soldier in the Civil War, and a politician, serving as the supervisor of Flint Township and a representative to the Michigan Legislature. The family had five daughters and five sons. His son David D. Aitken (1853–1930) later operated the farm and served in the United States House of Representatives.[2]External links
