Alaska History

In the early 1870s, George Tsaroff, a 14-year-old boy from Unalaska, traveled thousands of miles from the Aleutians to the Lower 48 with an explorer. It’s a story that hasn’t really been told until now.

Bishop Nestor of Alaska and the Aleutians commissioned the two-story Victorian home in 1882. On an ill-fated Alaska voyage, however, before he was ever able to sleep in the house, Nestor fell overboard and drowned. No bishop has ever stayed in the house...until now.
