The Clayson House was constructed as a residence in 1873 by George Clayson, a nurseryman who served on the Palatine Village Board. The property was purchased by the Palatine Public Library in 1976 and has been maintained and operated since then as a museum by the Palatine Park District. It is the home of the Palatine Historical Society. Its restoration was undertaken as a bicentennial project by the citizens of Palatine Township and the Palatine Historical Society. It was placed on the National Register of Historic Places on March 21, 1979 and opened to the public on October 7, 1979.
