The lot was originally owned by Thomas B. Allred. Allred may have erected a dwelling on the lot in the 1870 T s because when he sold to Moroni Brough in 1888, the price was $350, quite extravagant for a vacant lot. Moroni Brough began the new house after the turn of the century and; completed it in 1909. : |
