Erland Lee Museum, National historic site in Stoney Creek, Hamilton, Canada.

The Erland Lee Museum occupies a white board and batten Gothic house with steeply-pitched gables on Ridge Road in Stoney Creek, Ontario.

Built as a log cabin in 1808, the house received a Gothic addition in 1873 and remained the Lee family residence until their departure in 1970.

The dining room table displays the exact location where Janet Lee wrote the first Women's Institute constitution, establishing education for rural women in 1897.

The museum opens Wednesday through Sunday, featuring three floors of Victorian furniture and a carriage house with local history exhibits across two levels.

The 1875 Margaret Sheriff Quilt represents Canadian craftsmanship among the museum's collection of traditional and modern pattern textiles.
