Description
David Doane Davis moved to Allegan in June of 1835, and during the early years of his residence in Allegan he followed his trade of carpenter, participating in the building of many early Allegan structures. Later he was engaged as a contractor, and spent much of his time involved in many enterprises of considerable importance to the growth of Allegan. D.D. Davis married Miss Hannah J. Robinson on May 18, 1836, and they became two of the pioneers of Allegan. Being very energetic and industrious, they were highly successful in accumulation of property. Their first home was a log house built where the existing downtown of Allegan stands, and in 1863 they built the home which is now the DeLano Inn. D.D. Davis served on various boards in Allegan and the First Baptist Church. D.D. Davis died December 17, 1871 after having lived a successful, yet unremarkable life, one that was very conservative and well planned.
Hannah Davis was more than an ordinary woman, she possessed deep religious convictions, as well as thrift and industriousness. She was very outspoken in her beliefs, and extremely active in advocating various causes. When she died on September 30 1877, the First Baptist Church lost its strongest supporter, and many people lost a friend who had been their source of support. She left her home and estate valued at more than $60,000 to the First Baptist Church.
The church used the Davis house as a parsonage, and as a boarding house between pastors. First Baptist Church sold the parsonage to Mr. Horace B. Peck September 13, 1884. Mr. Peck was a banker who had owned City Bank of Allegan since 1873, and was involved in several different businesses in Allegan. He held several public offices including that of village president, but his political views did not rest with the public too well. Mr. Peck sold the home to Mr. Chaddock in April of 1890.
