The Lemuel Wellman House, at 100 East Main Street in Clinton, was built in 1792. It originally had only one story and no front porch. Lemuel Wellman married Elizabeth Buell in 1792 and, after her death in 1801, he married Julia Merrels. When his sons, Elias and Henry, married, the house was raised and expanded into a two-family dwelling for them.
