The Eugene Field House is a historic home and museum in St. Louis, Missouri. It was the home of Roswell Field, an attorney for Dred Scott in Dred Scott v. Sandford. Field's son, Eugene Field, was raised there and became a noted writer of children's stories. Threatened with demolition, the house was transferred to the St. Louis Board of Education in 1936. It is now a museum known as the Eugene Field House & St. Louis Toy Museum.
