NOTES
Additional Information:Early example with segmental arched window openings on first floor of main block and segmental arches. The entrance door has a transom lite above and side lites. The large wraparound veranda roof is supported by five large Tuscan Order columns resting on cut stone pedestals. This is probably a somewhat later addition. The rear additions are original, but have been enlarged at a later date. Built pre-1863. Original owner, William C.E. Thomas, was mayor of Green Bay in 1854.
