Jonathan Child House & BrewsterâBurke House Historic District is a national historic district containing a set of two historic homes located at Rochester in Monroe County, New York.
The Jonathan Child House, located at 37 S. Washington St. was constructed 1837-1838 by Jonathan Child (1785â1860), Rochester's first mayor and son-in-law of the city's founder Nathaniel Rochester.
