Historic Furnishings Report: McClintock House/Stanton House, First Wesleyan Methodist Church. Women's Rights National Historical Park, Seneca Falls, New York
Women's Rights National Historical Park was established December 28, 1980, to preserve and interpret the sites and structures associated with the struggle for equal rights for women. The historic sites included in the park are the Mary Ann McClintock House, the First Wesleyan Methodist Church, and the Elizabeth Cady Stanton House. The outlook for accurately re-creating the historic interior of the McClintock House is bleak. Unless significant new information is uncovered, historically furnished rooms are not recommended for this structure. Similarly, the documentation of interior furnishings for the First Wesleyan Methodist Church is very scanty during the period of the 1848 convention. Although the documentation from the late 1860s could be used, historically furnished rooms are not recommended. Many Stanton objects survive. Since the documentation does not allow for a convincing and complete use of these objects, historically furnished rooms are also not recommended. None of the three buildings, then, can be accurately refurnished, and the report includes no furnishing plans.
