378 Adelphi Street was built in 1858 by Jeptha A. Jones a compositor and hardware store owner. During the Civil War he was a Captain in the Union army. He was wounded at Bull Run, re-enlisted and fought until 1863. He was called “The Walker” because in battle he led his men with a slow, steady pace. Jones survived the war and is buried in Greenwood Cemetery.
The style of 378 is Italianate and relatively austere compared to later brownstones. The iron work is original and restored. An effort has been made to keep as much early flavor as is reasonable and compatible with modern comfort.
