Squire Earick House, Federal architectural residence in Portland district, Louisville, United States.
The Squire Earick House stands as the oldest wood-frame structure in Louisville, built in 1812 with heavy timbers joined through pegged mortise and tenon joints.
David Shields, a trader and river pilot, owned the house from 1827 to 1843, transporting goods such as pork, flour, and whiskey to New Orleans from Portland.
The Portland Museum maintains four portraits by John James Audubon related to the Earick family, including depictions of Mary Ann Bell and Jacob Earick.
The house, located at 719 North 34th Street in Louisville, Kentucky, sits within boundaries marked by Missouri Alley, Pflanz Avenue, Bank, and North 37th Streets.
Squire Jacob Wilstach Earick modified the original Federal style structure by incorporating elements of Steamboat Gothic architecture during his ownership period.
