The Eisenhower Homestead was settled by David Jacob Eisenhower and Ida Stover Eisenhower. They raised 6 sons, one of them went on to a 5 Star General serving in WW II and later become the president of the United States. There are historical markers placed on the homestead by the Daughters of the American Revolution.
