Captivating Shots Inside the Allis-Bushnell House – 1920s and 1930s Unveiled_ml

Amazing Photos of the Allis-Bushnell House Interior in the 1920s and ’30s

The Allis-Bushnell House was once home to Madison’s prominent Bushnell and Scranton families. Built in 1785, it was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.

The home’s lower-level rooms, each with distinct period architectural features, are decorated with period furniture, domestic implements, decorative arts, and paintings that illustrate how life was lived in Madison in five time periods from colonial days through the 1920s.
Each of these scenic “sets” is complemented by stories of life in the house as it was during colonial days, the Revolutionary War period, the Civil War period, and the Colonial Revival era.
The building was used as the headquarters of the Madison Historical Society until 2010, when the administrative offices were moved to Lee’s Academy. Currently the property is open to members and to the public for occasional special events throughout the year.
Here is a set of amazing vintage photos from Madison Historical Society that shows the Allis-Bushnell House interior from 1924 to 1935.
