Biography:

The principles were Herbert Briggs and Harry S. Nelson. They purchased Frank S. Barnum's interest in the F.S. Barnum Company, changing its name to Briggs and Nelson. The firm designed several buildings for the Ohio Farmers Insurance Company in Le Roy (now Westfield), Ohio; several projects for the Lake Shore and Michigan Southern Railroad; and numerous YMCA's. The Western Reserve Historical Society has many of the firm's architectural drawings.
