Farm Roots and Family Ties. Historic Resource Study. The Harry S. Truman Grandview Farm, the Wallace Houses, and the Noland House in Independence

摘要

Between 1989 and 1993, Congress authorized the acquisition of four properties for inclusion into the existing Harry S. Truman National Historic Site, created in 1983, and managed by the National Park Service. In 1989, Public Law 101-105 (codified at Title 16 United States Code Section 461 (b)), provided for the addition of the Natalie and Frank Wallace home, the May and George Wallace home, and the Noland home to the Truman National Historic Site. The National PArk Service acquired all three properties, totaling .63 acres, in 1991. The two Wallace homes, each encompassing around .22 acres, stand on adjacent lots at 601 West Truman Road (Natalie and Frank Wallace house) and 605 West Truman Road (May and George Wallace house.)
