The J. Neely Johnson House is a Greek Revival style Neoclassical historic home built in 1853, located in Sacramento, California.
[3] The house was constructed in 1853 for William Cozzens, a horticulturalist from New England, who made his way to California via Panama.
A press report in 1856 noted that Johnson gave a brief speech from the balcony prior to being escorted to the State Capitol for his inauguration.
Johnson, McMeans and Terry were prominent members of the American Party, also called the "Know Nothings" because of the secretive nature of their dealings.
