About Robert J. Whaley House

The Whaley Historic House Museum is the former home of Robert J. Whaley and Mary McFarlan-Whaley, who moved to Flint in 1885. The couple bought the Kearsley Street property and updated it into a classic Victorian house. The museum preserves the family home from 1885 to 1925 and tells the story of Flint during a period of major change. It runs tours, public programs, and events, and the house is also available for private rental.
