Farnam Manor Museum

Our mission is to carry on the philosophies of Everett Farnam, a colorful figure from America's past. His father was an early pioneer and one of the first settlers west of the Cuyahoga River. This was hostile Indian territory in those days. The legend of this once 3200 acre estate dates back to 1644.   A  U shaped pine tree still stands tall.  It once marked the Indian trail that is now Brecksville Road. (old rt. 21)   In 1834, Everett built this magnificent Manor House for his bride. He and Emily raised 5 children here. We are  dedicated to the restoration, preservation, and interpretation of the Farnam Manor Estate and the history it represents.    The vision of the Farnam Foundation is to keep this piece of history alive through a house museum for the vast community to learn of days gone by.   Lord Farnam opened his home to the community, as he wanted all to enjoy it's beauty.  Generations later, Farnam Foundation  keeps the spirit alive .
