Шаблон:Infobox NRHP The Albert and Mary Shekey House is a historic house at W7526 Koshkonong Mounds Road in the town of Koshkonong, Wisconsin.[1] The house was built in 1885 for Mary Shekey, the daughter of two of Jefferson County's first settlers, and her husband Albert, an engineer for the Chicago & North Western Railway. It provided close access to Lake Koshkonong and the Koshkonong Place hunting lodge; it is unknown if the Shekeys, who were Janesville residents before the house was built, lived in the house full-time or used it as a summer or rental home. The house has a Queen Anne design, a popular style of the late nineteenth century, though its architect and builder are unknown. Its design includes a projecting bay on the east side, an irregular cruciform roof with several hips and gables, ornamental brackets and a frieze board with carved circles below the eaves, and Dutch gables with wooden shingles within the gable ends.[2]

The house was added to the State Register of Historic Places in 2014 and to the National Register of Historic Places the following year.[3]
