The site preserves the residences of Harry S Truman, the 33rd President. The Truman Home was his residence from 1919 to 1972, and was called the "Summer White House" during his administration. The site includes four other homes that were part of the family compound: his Uncle and Aunt Noland's home across the street, the Wallace homes owned by Bess Truman's brothers, and the Truman Farm Home in Grandview, Missouri--the hub of a 600-acre farming operation.
