This style of house was popular in the 19th century in America as the country greatly identified with Greek philosophy and politics.

Also typical of this style, the roof has a lower pitch and the entrance door is framed with wide trim.

The two story house has a commanding presence, sitting upon a hill with two chimneys and nine windows with green shudders.

This barn, the house, and Jim Brown's grave marker have all been listed in the National Register of Historic Places.

At the time, paper money was produced by banks (approximately sixteen hundred nationwide), regulated by state charters.

Brown employed an identical strategy several additional times, defrauding banks as far away as Boston, Massachusetts.

Brown himself rarely touched counterfeit money, but he was ultimately caught in the nearby town of Boston after returning from New Orleans with goods for resale.

A legend exists that Jim had hidden some of his wealth somewhere in the Cuyahoga Valley, and he died before being able to retrieve it.
