The John Ohm House is a house located at the site of San Joaquin City, 6 miles (9.7 km) southeast of Tracy, California. The large bungalow was built by John Ohm, a prominent rancher in the San Joaquin Valley, in 1908. Ohm and his family lived in the house, which was also the main building of a 4 acres (1.6 ha) ranch. At the time, San Joaquin City was a major port on the San Joaquin River and an important center for regional commerce. In 1911, however, a new channel in the river bypassed San Joaquin City, and the city rapidly declined; most of its buildings were demolished after World War I. The Ohm House is one of the few surviving buildings from the city.[2]
The John Ohm House was added to the National Register of Historic Places on February 4, 1982.[1]
