Centrally located downtown, The Gould Swaby Mansion is touted as being Seneca Falls’ very own “Old Granville House.” The mansion's prior owner (Amelia Gould Swaby) was a “close personal friend” of Elizabeth Cady Stanton who wrote Susan B. Anthony's speeches and brought the first women's convention to Seneca Falls. It is located across the street from where Alice Paul was in attendance for the ratification of the 19th Amendment and footsteps from a number of the region’s acclaimed wine trails.
