Samuel S. Jones Cobblestone House

The Samuel S. Jones Cobblestone House is a large Greek Revival-styled farmhouse built in Clinton, Wisconsin in the late 1840s.

[4] The land on which the house sits was acquired by a Jerome Yates from the U.S. government in 1840, then sold the following year to Wesley Cary.

Identifying features of the style are the low-pitched roof, the cornice returns, the frieze board beneath the eaves, and the simple straight lintels above the windows.

[5] Less common in Greek Revival residences are the two wings and the cobblestone exterior.

Parts of the south and west walls were covered with stucco in the early 1900s, but this is of historical interest, since it was common in the Clinton area at that time.
