Additional Information: | Initially surveyed in 1994 - BARGE BOARDS IN GABLE CARVED ORNAMENTAL PANELS OBSCURED BY VEG RE-SURVEYED 2011 - The earliest available historic atlas showing land ownership (1873) indicates James Aram, a farmer, as the owner of the property. While a building is indicated at this time, it is likely not the Queen Anne house that exists today. The first available map showing acreage for the property is 1891; Frank M. Hicks is listed as the owner of the property, which at that time included 60 acres. Frank M. Hicks, also a farmer, more than likely played a role in the construction of the present house. The next available map, dated 1921, indicates the property under the ownership of Harold Williams. Harold Williams remained the owner of the property until 1976, when he died. |
