Hey all,

In SW OH and SE IN where I grew up, many of the oldest houses and 
churches have two front doors. They are Shaker houses, well constructed 
and standing the test of time. I believe there are many in central KY as 
well. This religious sect kept strict segregation of men and women. Each 
gender had a door.

Probably some in upstate NY as well, I think that is where they originated.
