Jameson Farm is a farmstead located at 10220 North Parma Road near Springport, Michigan. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.[1] HistoryJames M. Jameson moved from New York State to Springport in 1835. Soon thereafter, he settled on the land on which this house stands and constructed a log house. He began farming, and teaching school in the winter. In 1841, he married Miss Loretta Townley, and began concentrating more on farming.[2] Over the next decade, Jameson built one of the two largest farms in the area, and became a leading local citizen, being elected township supervisor several times. In 1850, Jameson constructed a new brick house. It was the first brick residence built in the township, and the unusually elaborate (for Michigan) house is one of the finest Greek Revival houses in south-central Michigan.[3] Jameson left the Springport area in 1876,[4] and died in Jackson, Michigan in 1886.[2] DescriptionThe Jameson Farm includes the 1850 farmhouse along with an old barnyard area containing a barn-corncrib structure, sheep pen, implement shed, and the remains of an orchard. The 1850 farmhouse is an unusually large, elaborate, brick Greek Revival structure built in an L shape. It sits on a fieldstone foundation. The house consists of a two-story main section with a hip roof and a 1-1/2-story, flank-gable, side wing. A large ell extends to the rear. The house has wide cornices with returns and a frieze band below. A porch with Doric columns fronts the wing; a second small porch was formerly located in front of the entry door. The windows are double-hung, six-pane sash units, with iron lintels and sills on the front facade and sandstone lintels and sills on the other facades.[3] References1. ^1 {{NRISref|version=2013a}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Jameson, James M., Farm}}{{National Register of Historic Places in Michigan}}2. ^1 {{citation | author = Ben A Joy | date = September 1910 | title = Pioneer History of Springport Township | publisher = Springport Signal | url = http://genealogytrails.com/mich/jackson/cityspringportbios.html}} 3. ^1 {{citation | title = National Register of Historic Places Inventory-Nomination Form: James M.
