The Richland County Land Bank has voted to demolish the historic Daisy
Barker house, the first home in Richland County built and owned by African
Americans, at 89 Wood St.
A special meeting was held Wednesday at 1 p.m. to allow Amy Hamrick, Land
Bank manager, to move forward and apply for Ohio Department of Development
replacement project demolition funds on several projects in Mansfield,
including the Daisy Barker house.
Hamrick earlier this month said because of a historic memorandum of
understanding, the process could take a couple of months.
It is not known when the demolition will occur, she said Thursday.
"Everyone must agree — the Ohio historic people, local people — we have to
agree to get everyone on the same page," she said.
The Richland County Historical Society opposes the demolition, Hamrick
said.
Hamrick said the goal is to save as much of the historic significance as
possible and to preserve the memory, which could include a historic marker
at the site.
History of Daisy Barker House
The first home in Richland County built and owned by African Americans was
condemned in April 2022 and is in imminent danger of falling down. The lot
was purchased in 1874 by ex-slave owner George Barker; Barker made history
by becoming the first African-American to build and occupy a house in
Mansfield. Daisy, his daughter, was born in 1877 and lived in the house
until her death in 1973.
The Land Bank took ownership of the property on April 12, 2016.
On Nov. 3, 2017, the property was transferred to the Mansfield Urban
Minority Alcoholic and Drug Abuse Outreach Program Inc. with a five-year
deed restriction to rehab the property, according to the land bank.
The Land Bank took the property back, with interior structural collapse
discovered, in July 2022. A historical review was done in August 2022 and
a structural inspection report was done that same month in 2022, according
to land bank officials.
The Land Bank and Richland County Historical Society have actively looked
for an end user to rehab the house.
In April of this year, a neighbor called indicating trees on property
could possibly damage his roof.
