Clayson was probably a local carpenter who also operated a grape orchard south of his property. Clayson moved to Palatine, Illinois from New York in the 1860s. He became a member of the Palatine Board of Trustees. Clayson acquired the {{convert|10|acre|adj=on}} property from Denzel F. Robinson in 1873. Clayson sold the house to Moses D. Brown in 1881.[3] Clayson sold the property so that he could move to nearby Nunda to expand his orchard interests.[4] The Palatine Public Library purchased the property in 1975 so that the Palatine Historical Society could rehabilitate it and maintain it as a public museum.[3] On March 21, 1979, the house was recognized by the National Park Service with a listing on the National Register of Historic Places.[1] Today it is still operated as a museum on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays. It is operated by the historical society and maintained by the Palatine Park District.[5] ArchitectureThe house is one of fewer than two dozen buildings in Palatine that are at least 125 years old. It was almost certainly based on a design in a pattern book. Customary to the Second Empire design motif, the house features a prominent Mansard roof. The first floor features a parlor, sitting room, dining room, kitchen, and library. The second floor had five bedrooms. The wood frame house sits on a brick foundation.[3] Notes1. ^1 2 {{NRISref|version=2010a}} 2. ^1 {{cite web|title=National Register of Historic Places Nomination Form|url=http://gis.hpa.state.il.us/PDFs/200150.pdf|publisher=Illinois Historic Preservation Agency|work=HAARGIS Database|format=PDF|accessdate=2007-08-03}} 3. ^1 2 http://gis.hpa.state.il.us/pdfs/200150.pdf 4. ^http://palatinehistoricalsociety.com/clayson-house/ 5. ^http://palatinehistoricalsociety.com/the-george-h-clayson-house-museum/ External links
