About
***Open houses, Victorian Afternoon Teas, and special programming available throughout the year.*** Constructed in three major components between 1816–1850, this legendary home raised three generations of Pattersons, including legendary industrialist John H. Patterson who founded his National Cash Register enterprise on the family’s land—roughly half-a-mile northwest of Patterson Homestead. Originally the home of Revolutionary War soldier and Lexington, Kentucky, and Cincinnati, Ohio, founder, Colonel Robert Patterson, this Federal-style house museum tells the story of Dayton’s influential Patterson family. Colonel Patterson first settled here in 1804. Upon his death in 1827, Rubicon Farm (the name of his land) covered 2,038 acres.
