TimWhen I was growing up, preachers got whatever housing the church provided – mostly parishioners’ cast-offs. I called your style "American parsonage. .I find amusing that the most common comment made on tours of Sam Rayburn’s house is, “:My grandmother had one of those.” He was about the last Speaker of the House not to become a millionaire in office (or if already one, a multimillionaire). A small family farm, a house enlarged as funds were available, $25,000 in the bank, and a car given him by the House when he broke Henry Clay’s record for time in the Speakership, that was it when he died.

My Grandma, had “lookin’ furniture” and “sittin’ furniture”. The lookin’ furniture was just for company.

I gave up on furniture ages ago. The cats just wreck it anyway.
