If Walls Could Talk

Former Holmes Hall for Boys (5x12)

Air date: Apr 16, 2001

A Pittsburgh homeowner makes great progress restoring grandeur to his 1868 mansion when missing features manage to make their way back to the house. Next, a Delaware homeowner has enjoyed living in his 18th-century home since the 1950s. During that time, clues to previous residents have been exposed and broken hinges in the basement could provide evidence that George Washington's troops once paid a visit. Finally, an 1893 Nebraska farmhouse has been in the same family since the 1930s, but descendants are now getting connected to the home's earlier roots.
