John and Margaret Bell House

The John and Margaret Bell House is located in Spring Prairie, Wisconsin.

The two-story stone house, built of local sandstone c. 1850 sits on a 3.8 acre parcel.

[2] John Bell, in partnership with E. D. Lay, started a nursery business in Wisconsin in 1832, selling a variety of plants and trees.

His wife lived until 1902, his heirs then sold the farm to a sister, who held it until 1914 when it passed from the family.

It is built of two layers of the unusually thin sandstone blocks sold by the Mormon quarry.
