The Thomas M. and Bridget Blackstock House is located in Sheboygan, Wisconsin, United States. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1995.[3] The Blackstock House is a two-story,[1] balloon frame, clapboard home designed by architect Arvin Luce Weeks in the Italianate style.[2]
The house was originally built for Thomas M.
