Event
Cohen Bray House Holiday Tour and Tea
The house was built in 1882-1884 by Julia Moses and Watson A. Bray, for their daughter, Emma, upon her marriage to Alfred H. Cohen, attorney, on February 28, 1884. A. H. Cohen was the son of Emilie Gibbons and A. A. Cohen, the latter also a lawyer. The house has been lived in by the Cohen Family for 130 years and is now an Historic House Museum.
Stepping into the house is like going back in time as the house has not been changed since 1884 when the bride and groom moved in. The house is full of amazing artifacts that demonstrate the life and culture of one family over 130 years. Books, photos, flatware, art, furniture, clothes, and much more are available to observe and study.
The tea will begin with a tour of the upper rooms of the house and then after tea you will tour the lower floor.
Be sure to dress warmly as the house is not heated in every room,
