The cabin stood on a farm near Azotus when John Thomas Davidson purchased it in 1882. In 1993, R. C. Davidson, a grandson of John Thomas, presented it to the Pope County Historical Society, and it was moved to its present site. The logs, foundation stones, fireplace, and large stones used as steps are all part of the original structure. On 28 August 1993, the Pope County Historical Society presented the cabin to the Illinois Historic Preservation Agency.
