The marker is located in the front yard of a home at 303 North Stanton Street in Lebanon, about six blocks west of IL 4. Stanton Street lies along the west edge of McKendree College.
On this site stood the home of the Deneen family long associated with the history of McKendree College — Rev. William L. Deneen; Professor Samuel H. Deneen; and Charles S. Deneen, Governor of Illinois, 1905-1913, and US Senator, 1925-1931. They were three generations of outstanding McKendree alumni.
