Summary
| Description |
English: The Bird-Brady House served as a private residence for teachers and families associated with Storer College, a historically black college in Harpers Ferry, West Virginia, that operated from 1867 to 1955. Originally occupied by white Baptists, the house is named after Elizabeth Bird and Mabel Brady, sisters who graduated from the college and worked there as administrators in the 1940s and 50s. From the 1940s on, African-Americans began to take a stronger leadership role in running the college. The building was bought by the National Park Service in 1962, but Bird and Brady continue to live there until at least 1970. Afterwards, the building was converted for use as office space as part of the NPS's Harpers Ferry Center.
