The house and grounds where "Ike" was born on Oct. 14, 1890 are a Texas State Historic Site. Eisenhower's military success as Supreme Allied Commander Europe during World War II prompted local Denison school principal Jennie Jackson to correspond with General Eisenhower. She inquired if he was from the Eisenhower family she remembered in Denison. His family had moved to Kansas when he was two years old, and until he received Jackson's letter, he was unaware he had been born in Denison. Eisenhower's mother, Ida Elizabeth Stover, was still alive at the time, and he put his mother in touch with Jackson. Upon hearing from Eisenhower's mother that this was indeed his birthplace, Jackson set about to raise funds to purchase the two-story frame house. After the purchase the house was then donated to the city of Denison. The museum was established in 1955. After Eisenhower was elected president, the Eisenhower Foundation was formed in 1953 for restoration of the birth home. | Credit line: The Lyda Hill Texas Collection of Photographs in Carol M.
