Excerpt from Indiana Houses of the Nineteenth Century Influences of buildings in neighboring states to the east and south can be detected in many of the houses in Indiana. As settlers moved into the new lands, they brought with them clear impressions of the houses they formerly had lived in, and as soon as their economic status permitted, they erected new homes comparable to those left behind. Among the first dwellings erected by the early settlers were log cabins. As fascinating and romantic as these are to many people today, they are not being considered in this book because our theme is artistic architectural design, not mere housing. It should be pointed out, however, that numerous log cabins and log houses are to be found in Indiana today. Contrary to popular belief, all of the dwellings erected by the first settlers were not necessarily of log construction, nor were log cabins exclusively used at any one time. While it is true that they represent the typical home of the pioneer who settled in a wooded area, they were erected in different parts of the state at different times, some fairly late in the nineteenth century. In many early communities log houses stood beside or not far from frame and brick buildings, only to be replaced by more stately domiciles when the owners could afford something better. When, for instance, the Lincoln family was living in the humblest sort of log cabin in Spencer County (1816 18 there were many fine residences in southern Indiana.
