The home was given to the Oklahoma Historical Society in 1980 and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1981. The Oklahoma Historical Society operates the home as a historic house museum. [2]

Design

The house is built in a late Victorian style with a central square tower, balcony, and false dormers. It is the only residence in the Hominy area with the Victorian Shingle Style. [4] The first story is made of sandstone and the upper floors are a wood frame covered with green painted shingles. The home was built with a basement that contained a gas-generating unit and water cistern that provided the home with running water. [2]

The listing included three contributing buildings. Besides the main house, there is a 13 by 14 feet (4.0 m × 4.3 m) tiny home termed the "Moses House". This was home to a black man named Moses who did handyman work for the family. [4]
