Burleson County, Texas

The story

Caldwell native William Reeves (1858-1921), a prominent merchant and banker in the town, built this residence before the turn of the century. In 1907 it was sold to Civil War veteran Capt. Mansell Lewis Womack (b. 1846), a local business and civic leader who had served as Sheriff of Burleson County.

Members of his family owned the house until 1957. The home's elaborate late Victorian style features intricate Eastlake detailing.
