Hayes House

John M. Hayes (1869-1918) constructed this three-story frame residence soon after he purchased the property in 1906. A businessman, Hayes managed the substantial financial holdings of his family. After his death, his widow, Jo Elizabeth (d. 1961), continued to reside here. The home, which features restrained classical detailing on the exterior and intricate interior ornamentation, reflects the status of a prominent Paris family at the turn of the century.
