From the University of Wisconsin Digital Collection:
"New York native Timothy Jackman settled in Janesville in 1843. He founded the Rock County National Bank three years before he built this handsome Italianate style residence; banking was one among his many business interests. Decora- tion is concentrated at the frieze and lantern of the house. Overscaled brackets have acorn pendants, a motif also seen at the Tallman House of 1855-57."
