• Notes

  Benjamin Bangs was the first village president of what was then Fentonville, elected in 1863. He built The Benjamin Bangs House about 1866, a single-family home located at 819 South Leroy Street in Fenton, Michigan. In later years, the house served as a tea room, corset shop, and radio station at various times. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982. The Benjamin Bangs House is a two-story frame rectangular Greek Revival with a gable roof and one hip-roofed side wing. The front facade contains a door framed with pilasters and topped with a fanlight-like molding and a full entablature. The gable end terminates in a wide modillioned frieze below a boxed cornice with returns.
