Cheboygan businessman Jacob Post built this Queen Anne style house in 1886. Designed by Frederick W. Hollister of Saginaw, the residence reflected Post’s prominence in the community. A New York native, Post received a medical discharge from the Union army in 1863, then worked in a general store where he learned the merchant trade. In 1872, Post and his wife, Cornelia, settled in Cheboygan, where he opened the town’s first hardware store and founded the First National National Bank of Cheboygan.
