Notes

Photograph of 503 E. Neches taken from the road. Photo was taken for the Historic Resources Survey of Palestine, Texas 1989-1991. This house typifies the kind of Tudor Revival dwelling that was built locally from the late 1920s through the 1930s. This property is significant because it is virtually unaltered, and it retains its integrity to such a high degree. The 1935-36 city directory lists Truman D. Peale at this address. By 1937, however, the occupants are listed as DeWitt W. Peale and his wife Corinne. Mr. Peale worked as chief clerk to the auditor of Missouri Pacific. The Peales remained in the house through the early 1940s.
