Dr. Elma Griggs owned both 109 and 111 E Seneca St.  In 1922, after her death, Dr. Griggs' daughter, Bertha Chambers, sold them to Mabelle E. Rockwell.

In 1929 Dr. Royden Vose purchased both properties from Paul Rockwell.

“111 E. Seneca (probably before 1851). Very little is known about this charming small Greek Revival house, which now contains an office. The first map to show the building in its present location is the one from 1871. Maps done in 1851 and 1866 show a building that is closer to the street. Perhaps the house was moved back to create a larger yard, or perhaps the earlier house was torn down and this one moved here.”

Daniel Snodderly, Ithaca and Its Past, 50-51.

"The small Greek Revival house at 111 East Seneca Street was built before 1850. Its front-facing gable and cornice returns are typical Greek Revival features."
