Nathan P. Gifford House (1893)

In 1892-1893, when lumber dealer Nathan P. Gifford constructed his Colonial Revival home at 377 Essex Street in Salem, he incorporated an earlier house on the site, which had been built by James Ford in 1764. The house is also referred to as the Ford-Emerson-Ives-Gifford House, because it had been occupied, earlier in the nineteenth century, by Rev. Brown Emerson, pastor of South Church, and David P. Ives. The Ford-Emerson-Ives-Gifford House served as the residence and office for a succession of doctors in the twentieth century and was recently converted into three large apartments.
