Comprehensive History

According to research done by Emma Schmitt for a research paper for her Anthropology 350 course at the College of Wooster (ca. 2007), the building at 147-151 South Market Street in Wooster "was constructed in 1881 after a fire destroyed the entire block in the late 1800s" and was purchased by the local lodge of the International Order of Odd Fellows in 1901 for $9000. The Odd Fellows "remodeled it from 1902 to 1903 and in 1913 and 1923 they made additions to it"[1].
