Kaufman County, Texas

The story

Built in 1910, this home dates from a period of economic boom enjoyed by the town of Forney from 1873 until 1929. It was constructed for Georgia native Dick Parmenas Moore (1869-1943), a merchant who owned a large amount of cotton acreage in the area. His wife, Nancy (Pinkard), resided here until her death in 1958.

The American four-square style house features Classical Revival influences in the porch details. Recorded Texas Historic Landmark - 1985
