Property Features
This house is architecturally significant as a good and interesting example of the Queen Anne style. While not as exuberantly detailed as many Queen Anne houses, this house has the massive form, bays, veranda and other details that make it an interesting example of the style. The large jerkinhead roof is probably the most unusual part of the house, while the projecting bays are typical of the style. The carriage is outstanding and should be preserved.
This was the home of Charles A. Galloway, an executive with the Moore and Galloway Lumber Company, an important wood products company in Fond du Lac in the nineteenth century. Later, he was president of the Fond du Lac National Bank.
At the present time this house is not historically significant. Further research into Galloway and his association with the Moore and Galloway Lumber Company may uncover information that makes him significant.
