Notes

Photograph of 615 W. Reagan taken from the road. Photo was taken for the Historic Resources Survey of Palestine, Texas 1989-1991. The most common house form of the late 19th century was the L-plan, and this property is a noteworthy example. The 1-story frame house displays fine craftsmanship on the porch, along the eaves and in the gable ends. Detailing is suggestive of the Queen Anne style, which was popular locally from the 1880s to the early 1900s. This house appears to be virtually unaltered, with its integrity intact. The earliest known occupants of this house were renters, including: S.H. and Annie Lively, who lived here during the mid-1920s; and Gillam C. and Gladys Trim, who lived here during the early 1940s.
