OLD HOMES
Jo Daviess County

J.W. White Residence
The house stands on the top of a hill overlooking the town of Hanover. For perhaps more than fifty years Mrs. White lived in this house, which is constructed along the style of the houses of the Colinial days. The characteristics that mark it as such are, a fireplace within, which was built for use and not for looks, a large chimney over the roof, and a central tower, such as the old plantation owners in the early days could look out from to see that all was well with their possessions     "J.W.
