"The rear section of the house was built just after the Civil War and was transformed into high
style Victorian when the front part of the house was constructed c. 1880. The house is
roughly L shaped with a front facing gable connected to a side gabled section. In the
juncture of the L is a slightly recessed section with hipped/mansard roof. A massive brick
chimney extends from the mansard's roofline. A one-story porch with Eastlake influenced
spindle and scrollwork wraps this section. The front facing gable has a bay window on the
first floor with paired 1/1 windows and a decorative cornice. The gable itself has board and
batten siding and a decorative verge board. A transom and sidelights surround the front
door. The original entrance also has transom and sidelights. The rear ell is the original (c.
1868) portion of the house.
"The fireplace in the parlor was painted by an itinerant painter in the primitive style. The
woodwork in the front hall has been stained to look like burled walnut. John T. Jameson built
the original portion of the house c. 1868. The Jameson family ran a livery stable that was
located south of the home. The Jameson family settled in Callaway County in 1820. The
family cemetery still exists on Business Highway 54 in Fulton." ~ NRHP Nomination Form
