JOE JACKSON WAS A MEMBER OF THE PARKS AND PLEASURE DRIVE ASSOCIATION AND LIVED HERE AT ONE TIME. "This solid frame house with its ionic columns and balance design was built in 1904 or 1905 for Madison photographer Fred Curtiss, son of Edwin Curtiss. Father and son served as semi-official photographers to 19th century Wisconsin legislators. In 1920, Col. Joseph W. Jackson became the third owner of the house. Son and brother to the doctors of Madison's Jackson Clinic, Col. Jackson had been a rancher in North Dakota were he served as mayor of Williston. He was commissioned colonel in the United States Army from North Dakota and commanded a remount station purchasing cavalry horses in France during the First World War. Returning to Madison, he became business manager of the Jackson Clinic. He is best remembered for his indefatigable work in behalf of the Arboretum. The house is a splendid example of Georgian Revival design. The generous front porch balances the porte-cochere on the west end. Teh hip roof was originally enclosed with a railing. Similar railings enclosed the roof of the porch and the dormer windows above the front door. Also typical of Georgian Revival style are the cornices with dentils in the frieze."
