The Heinz House, a gift from the H.J. Heinz Company, was ceremoniously accepted in 1954 by William Clay Ford, grandson of Henry Ford and recently named Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the Edison Institute (now The Henry Ford). The Heinz House was the first historic structure added to Greenfield Village since the death of Henry Ford in 1947.

In 1869, H.J. Heinz started his processed food business at his parents' home in Sharpsburg, Pennsylvania. Though operations soon outgrew the house, it remained an important part of company history. In 1904, Heinz moved the house 5 miles down the Allegheny River to his Pittsburgh factory, where it served as a company museum for visiting tourists.
