The Jackson County Home once stood on South Jackson St in Brownstown. Land for the home was purchased in 1847 and the first building erected in 1850, it was a 16 x 25 foot log home. In March 1864 $5,000 was appropriated for building a county asylum. The 3 story brick building was torn down in 1975.
