Nisbet Homestead Farm, also known as the Old Stone House, is located near the LaSalle County town of Earlville, Illinois. The farm itself is actually in DeKalb County. The homestead is a stone structure, the only one in DeKalb County. The stone house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) on May 31, 1984.〔 ==History== The homesteaded land was acquired by Matthew Nisbet, who had immigrated from Scotland to Upper Canada in 1818. In 1841 Nisbet came to DeKalb County, Paw Paw Township, and constructed a two story log cabin, a temporary home he lived in while he built the Old Stone House. The home is constructed of ten-by-four feet blocks of stone; which were hauled from Ottawa, Illinois via ox-cart. Nisbet's home took 15 years to build and has remained in the Nisbet family since its completion.〔(''Nisbet Homestead Farm Records'' ); Regional History Center, Northern Illinois University.〕
