Biography:

B. S. DeForest was a native of New York State. He lived in Chicago for a time before relocating to Cleveland in 1872 following the Great Chicago Fire. He was active as a Cleveland architect from 1876 until his death in 1886. He was a veteran of the Civil War. He wrote "Random Sketches and Wandering Thoughts or What I saw in camp; With a historical sketch of the Second Oswego Regiment, Eighty First New York". His architectural practice occurred in the era before building permits, so we know of one building that he designed.
