George Nichols Home - Circa 1878

This typical Wisconsin farmhouse became the retirement home in 1880 of early civic leader George Nichols. Five unusual round windows upstairs and a hilltop location provided a grand view of the area. Nichols School and Road, built on parcels of his original farm, are named in George Nichols' honor.

Marker is on Ridgewood Avenue 0 miles south of Graham Drive, on the left when traveling south.
