On 8/15/1862 he enlisted in Madison and served during the Civil War with Company A of the 23rd Wisconsin Volunteers. On 4/14/1863, he was sick in the hospital at Milliken Bend, Louisiana. He was transferred to the Invalid Corps. After the war he was a farmer before retiring to this house. He was a member of the Grand Army of the Republic, Kegonsa Lodge #73, and the Old Settlers Club of Wheeler Prairie. He died on 9/17/1904 after suffering from senile dementia for two years. He's buried at Riverside Cemetery in Stoughton. His widow, Jennie, was born in April, 1846, and they had at least two sons and a daughter. It is also a Locally Designated Landmark
29. Luke Stoughton House, 515 (315) N. Division Street, is believed to be constructed sometime between 1887 and 1892. The current front porch probably also dates to the late nineteenth century. The porch on the south side of the building is believed not to be historic. This house was originally constructed in the mid-nineteenth century and was located near the northeast corner of Division and Main streets. Luke and Eliza Stoughton owned this property from the mid-nineteenth century until Luke's death in 1874. They lived in this house until their house at 516 S. Page St. was completed in 1856. The original house was sold by his daughter, Luella, in 1875 to Ole Olsen Ausse and moved to the northwest corner of Forrest and Jefferson streets. Faced with demolition in 1974 by commercial expansion, the home was acquired by members of the Luke Stoughton Society and moved to its present location on N. Division St. Although the building has been moved several times, it is still historically important for its association with Luke Stoughton. It is also a Locally Designated Landmark.
30. Hans Peterson Building, 154 (148) E. Main Street, built in 1865, the building provides an example of the physical surroundings in which past generations lived and worked. The frequency of Italianate commercial design, popular in Wisconsin from 1850-1900, is an indication of the extent of growth and settlement in the state during this period. It is also a Locally Designated Landmark.
31. Era H. and Harriet Grout House, 118 N. Page Street, the queen anne style structure is believed to been built in 1886 and is representative of the work of master builder, A. E. Orven.
32. Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railroad Depot, 529 E. Main Street, constructed in 1885, the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railroad Depot is significant in the City of Stoughton for its association with the history of transportation. In the mid- to- late- nineteenth century, railroad service was arguably the most significant development that might influence the future of that community. If the railroad passed a community by, the chances of that town or village prospering were substantially dimmed; but if the railroad passed through a community, the prospects for future growth, development and wealth were practically guaranteed.
