The Delicate Charm of the Henry-Stuart House
|
Abstract |
The Henry-Stuart House is a nineteenth century brick cottage set in a picturesque garden at 82 de la Grande Allée West in Quebec City. Henry-Stuart House was built by a Quebec entrepreneur for his daughter, Mary (or Maria) Curry Henry in 1849. In 1918 it was purchased by the sisters Adele-Maud and Mary-Lauretta Stuart who continued to own the house until Adele's death in 1987. The Henry-Stuart House is now operated as a museum. In 1999 the house and grounds was designated a national historic site, commemorating the lifestyle perpetuated by the English middle class of Quebec City into the early part of the twentieth century.
