The Perry and Agnes Wadsworth Fitzgerald House, at 1160 East Pioneer Road in Draper, Utah, United States, was built in 1870 as the home for Perry Fitzgerald's third polygamous wife Agnes, who had 13 children. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2004.[1]

Description

Front view, January 2015

The property was assessed for its historic significance in 2004, when a Draper city library was planned to be built upon the property. A historic log cabin had already been moved to a city park and preserved. The Fitzgerald House was deemed to "retain remarkable integrity" and to be significant as the oldest brick house in Draper, and as an "excellent example of pioneer craftsmanship".[2]
