DePue House and Indian Museum
215 Court Street
Jackson
Built 1870
The oldest part of the DePue House was probably built around 1870 by
Isaac Peiser. The Blair family became owners in 1900 and expanded it to its present
size in 1903.
During the 1930's, Grace Blair DePue built a two-story, brick building behind
the house for her collection of North American Indian artifacts. Upon her death in
1944, the collection of 2, 831 items was willed to the University of California
at Berkeley.
The house is now a private residence not open to the public.
