Tallman-Newlin House

Douglas County

Originally built in 1866 as a log cabin by John and Elizabeth Tallman, the house received a new look by the turn of century while under the ownership of William Gilpin Newlin and his wife, Elizabeth. 

A view of the house from an angle with yellow walls, red roof, and door in center with two windows on either side.

The house exemplifies log construction "updated" by the application of wood siding.  Relocated to save it from demolition, it will be used as an educational tool to illustrate early local building practices and materials.
