Built circa 1841 – 1846
Michael J. Noyes was a native of New Hampshire. He came west settling in Pike County, Missouri for many years before moving to Pittsfield in 1841. Noyes was the founder and editor of Pike County’s first newspaper in 1841. The “Sucker and the Farmer’s Record” newspapers of the day along with Noyes family history state that Abraham Lincoln gave a speech here.
Proceed to the Col. William Ross House by continuing east on Washington Street. The house will be the second house past the Pike County Farm Bureau on your right.
