알페우스 키시

Alpheus Quicy
월터 번스 하우스, 맨체스터, CT (1821년-1830년경 알페우스 키시 건축)

알페우스 키시 (1774–1875)는 코네티컷에 많은 집과 다른 건물들을 지은 미국의 석공이었다.

때때로 "Quincy"라고 철자를 잘못 쓰는 키시는 자유로운 흑인이었다.그는 1800년대 코네티컷주 주변에 적어도 2개의 석조 주택, 즉 이스트 센터 스트리트의 트레베 주택과 비드웰 스트리트의 월터 번스 주택, 그리고 캔턴의 콜린스 액스 회사 공장 건물의 일부를 포함한 다양한 건축물을 건설한 것으로 알려져 있다.[3] 아직 서 있는 것으로 알려진 키시의 유일한 건물인 번스 하우스는 코네티컷 프리덤 트레일의 일부이다.[4] [5]

키시와 그의 아내 조안나는 CT 주 맨체스터의 웨스트 묘지에 묻혔다.
