Robert Ingersoll Birthplace, also known as Robert Green Ingersoll Birthplace Museum, is a historic home located at Dresden in Yates County, New York. It is a Federal-style structure that consists of a two-story, three-bay, gable-roofed central block with a two-part, 1+1⁄2-story saltbox ell on the west side. The central block and the front portion of the ell were built separately and joined sometime before they were moved to their present location prior to 1833.
Localisation
The rear portion of the ell was added on-site at the current location at an unknown date. The house was the birthplace of noted agnostic and politician Robert G. Ingersoll (1833–1899). It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988, and added to New York State's Register of Historic Places in 1987.
