The Dempster-Sloan House is a historic two-story house in Geneva, Nebraska. It was built with red bricks in 1887 by John A. Dempster and designed in the Italianate architectural style. [2] Dempster had served the Union Army in Illinois during the American Civil War of 1861–1865 before becoming a settler in Nebraska. [2] From 1887 to 1891, Dempster served as a Republican member of the Nebraska House of Representatives. [2] His sister lived at the George W. Smith House. [2] From 1898 to 1946, the house belonged to Charles Henry Sloan, who served as a Republican member of the United States House of Representatives from 1911 to 1919, and from 1929 to 1931. [2] The house has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since March 15, 2005. [1]
