National Register of Historic Places - Crossgrove House

Statement of Significant: The Crossgrove House, built circa 1885 and later expanded, is a two-story brick vernacular classical residence. The Crossgrove House is locally significant under Criterion A in the areas of Agriculture and Education for its association with the development of Draper in the late nineteenth and first half of the twentieth centuries. The period of significance spans the initial construction, circa 1885, to 1954, the end of the historic period as defined by the Multiple Property Documentation Form: Historic and Architectural Resources of Draper, Utah, 1849-1954. The Crossgrove House is eligible as a representative of a multi-generational family's contributions to the Draper community. Three generations of the Crossgrove families lived together through the most important decades of Draper's development. The first owners, James and Martha Crossgrove, were farmers and ranchers who contributed to the early development of Draper in the nineteenth century during the associated historic context: the "Railroads, Mercantilism, and the Farming and Ranching Period, 1877-1917" in the area of Agriculture. James Crossgrove also started a brick yard and was a brick mason during the late-nineteenth-century construction boom in Draper. The second owners, Baynard and Matilda Crossgrove, lived in the house and oversaw the transformation of the family holdings into a large-scale poultry farm during the historic context: the "Twentieth-Century Community Development and the Poultry Industry Period, 1918-1954." Their daughter, Hulda Crossgrove, the third owner of the house, is significant in the area of Education during the rise in prosperity in Draper based on the success of the poultry industry. The first twenty-six years of her forty-plus-year career was at the Draper Park School. The Crossgrove House remained in the family until 1999. It is in good condition and is a contributing historic resource in Draper, Utah.
