10
The Bevier-Wright House was built by Cornelius and Barbara Bevier circa 1850. In 1889, Otsego County native and Civil War veteran William Wright purchased it for 3,000.00. W. E. Wright was a carpenter, general contractor, and proprietor of two stove and tinware stores in Binghamton. Chenango Canal mules and Binghamton-Port Dickinson Railway Co. horses boarded in the barn. The property later passed to Horace Calvin Wright, Kenneth Klee, and Isabel Montgomery Wright. The house and property were listed by the U.S. Dept. of the Interior on the National Register and N.Y.S. Register of Historic Places in 2008.
