"This Queen Anne style home was built in 1895 by Hans Bille of Marshfield, for Dr. Henry A. & Anne Lathrop. Prior to this it was a farm owned by John Erion. In 1909 William Noll, Jr., who lived at 117 S. Cherry, swapped houses with Dr. Lathrop. William Noll's son Arthur, lived in the home until his death in 1967, when the Walter Thomas family moved into the home. Walter Thomas and his son Gordon Thomas owned the Thomas IGA grocery store. The home had beautiful English oak and birch woodwork, hardwood floors throughout the house, several fireplaces, a library, two parlors, a huge dining room with a buit-in china cabinet, a huge kitchen and pantry, and a beautiful vestibule and open stairway, all of solid woods."
