Rombach Place
The Rombach Place is a historic house in the city of Wilmington, Ohio, United States. Built in the first third of the nineteenth century, it was home to a family that produced two prominent national politicians. No longer used as a residence, the house is now a museum, and it has been named a historic site.
==History==
Robert Wickersham built the Rombach Place in 1831. It was later home to the family of James W. Denver, a politician who achieved national prominence in the middle of the century.〔Owen, Lorrie K., ed. ''Dictionary of Ohio Historic Places''. Vol. 1. St. Clair Shores: Somerset, 1999, 153.〕
James Denver was born in Winchester, Virginia in 1817,〔Brown, Albert J., ed. ''History of Clinton County Ohio: Its People, Industries, and Institutions''. Indianapolis: Bowen, 1915.〕 and at the age of thirty-nine he married the former Louise Rombach of Wilmington; to this union were born four children.〔 Much of his youth was spent on a farm near Wilmington, but he later moved far to the west,〔 serving as a U.S. Representative from California, a governor of the Kansas Territory (a new settlement in the far west of the territory, now part of Colorado, was named for him), as the Commissioner of Indian Affairs, and as a U.S. Army general during the Civil War.〔 However, after the war, he returned to Wilmington for a time. In 1870, while he and his family were resident in the Rombach Place, their youngest son was born; named Matthew, he was later elected a U.S. Representative from Ohio.〔
