The Alvord House is an historic stone farmhouse in the Town of Salina, New York, just north of Syracuse. The Alvord family were merchants in the then-emerging salt manufacturing business in the Salina area in the early 19th century. In 1835, this house was constructed on what was then a large tract of farmland. It was the main house amongst a small cluster of other homes and outbuildings on the family farm.cite web|url=http://www.oprhp.state.ny.us/hpimaging/hp_view.asp?GroupView=6274 |title=National Register of Historic Places Registration: Alvord House |date=September 3, 1975 |accessdate=2008-08-3 |author=Cornelia E.
