The J. Newton Conger House is a historic house located at 334 North Knox Street in Oneida, Illinois. P. G. Hubbard had the house built in 1860; four years later, it was sold to J. Newton Conger, a livestock shipper and prominent local citizen. The house has a Carpenter Gothic design described as the best example of the style in Knox County. The front porch and the roof's steep gables feature gingerbread trim along the edges, a characteristic feature of the style. The house's tall and narrow windows have decorative hat-like surrounds along the top and upper sides.[2]
