About 1844, William Homan Hallock (died 1867), son of Rev. Jeremiah Hallock (1756-1826), built the house at 221 Cherry Brook Road in Canton. It replaced his previous home on the same site, which had burned down in 1838. At that time, Hallock was serving as town clerk (starting in 1827) and the town records he had stored at the house were destroyed.
