The individual in question (Horatio Chapin) was a founder and first president (mayor) of South Bend. Other cities have entries for their founders and first mayors. Why should South Bend's founder be treated any differently and be denied his own wikipedia article? Chapin is significant for his house, but his significance goes far beyond that as an antebellum American pioneer and founder of a significant midwest city.

Also, the church he founded was important in helping escaped slaves (Indiana was a free state but had a catch and return policy that Chapin's church fought in courts....I'm doing research on this and plan to incorporate into the article in the future). I also have historical photos I would like to add.

Please don't reduce this man to his house! Please accept this entry. If you do not accept, please provide a justification why far less important figures and 19th century mayors of less significant midwest cities have their own entry, but Chapin cannot. See for comparison James Kingsley, a 19th century mayor of Ann Arbor, MI, who wasn't even a founder of Ann Arbor (just its second mayor), but gets his own entry.
