History

Peter Peterson was a Norwegian immigrant. He would become a prominent merchant and politician and would help to found a local Lutheran church. Originally his private residence, Peterson eventually donated the house to the church. Since then, it has been used as a parsonage. The building is commonly known as the Bethany Lutheran Parsonage. [2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985 and on the State Register of Historic Places in 1989. [3]
