Docents use artifacts and stories about the Davis family to interpret the rich social and cultural history of America's western frontier from the 1850s through the 1880s. Specific themes include servant life, domestic life and technology at the dawn of the industrial age, family history (with a focus on children), and Victorian architecture.

I encourage everyone to go and tour the David Davis Mansion. The Mansion will be closing on September 30, 2008 for an unknown amount of time due to budget cuts made by the State of Illinois. Go and support the Davis Mansion, show the people in Springfield how much people value and treasure this amazing site.
