Ireland-Emery House (1797)

The facade of the Ireland-Emery House, at 131 Federal Street in Salem, does not face the street but instead fronts a yard on the west side. The house, which was built around 1797, is named for Jonathan Ireland, a blacksmith for whom it was erected, and Samuel Emery, a nautical instrument dealer and compass maker, active in Salem between 1809 and 1868, who acquired the house in 1828. The bay window above the front door is a later addition.
