George and Sarah Joslyn Home historical marker

A small roadside historical marker identifies the former site of the Omaha home of George and Sarah Joslyn, one of the city's most prominent Gilded Age philanthropic couples. George Joslyn built his fortune as head of the Western Newspaper Union; after his death in 1916, Sarah commissioned the Joslyn Art Museum in his memory, which still stands nearby. The marker itself is a modest plaque with no remaining structure — a footnote stop for visitors tracing the broader Joslyn legacy across Omaha.
