Frisbie-Walsh House, 235 East L St Benicia, Solano County, CA
This Gothic Revival style cottage is the earliest and probably the most important house in Benicia. Built shortly before 1850 by John Frisbie, General Vallejo`s son-in-law, it was soon to Captain Walsh, who lived there until the 1880s. Apparently, this structure was a prefabricated house, in which the timbers were cut and numbered, brought to Benicia and assembled. It is very close in appearance to Lachryma Montis, General Vallejo`s own house near Sonoma, and to the Burritt House, once located in San Francisco but since demolished.
