The Samuel J. Tipton House, near Harris, Kansas, dates from 1857. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975.[1]

The house, also called Mineral Point Mansion, was built for Samuel J. Tipton, who introduced Shorthorn cattle to Kansas. The house served as a post office, as a general store, and as a stage-stop.[2]
