Source-derived summary

The C. D. Hulburt House is a historic house at 1205 13th Avenue in Monroe, Wisconsin.

History

The house was built in 1878 for Chauncey D. Hulburt, a prominent lumberman who moved to Green County from Onondaga County, New York in 1847. His father, Julius Hulburt, was a member of the Wisconsin State Assembly. The one-and-a-half story house is the only Second Empire house standing in Green County. Hulburt traveled around the world by ship in 1865, and his travels may have inspired his choice of a locally uncommon style. The house's design includes an arched entrance and front window, a three-sided bay window on the front facade, and a mansard roof with ornate wooden dormers. The interior of the house includes carved walnut and maple fixtures and hardwood flooring, befitting Hulburt's occupation.

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979 and on the State Register of Historic Places in 1989.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as house in Monroe, Wisconsin. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 2, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q60743460. Authority coordinates are 42.600, -89.644. 2 of 2 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1205, 1878, 1847 and 1865.

Critical limits

A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
