Coleman, Texas Legal Description: |
Over the years, the dwelling remained pretty much unchanged until between 1909 and 1916 when the front porch was modified and enlarged and the porch at the rear (south side) was closed in. From about 1904, a small shed was located on the southwest part of the lot, and about 1912, this shed was moved to the west and a small servant's house was built on the southwest side and an automobile garage was built on the San Saba Street. On the 1916 and 1923 maps this garage is not shown as tile, but the 1930 and 1948, this garage is shown as "CB" which appears to be cement brick. By 1923 the servant's house is being addressed as 214 1/2 (or 214 Rear) East Pecan Street.
"In 1929, Malcolm G. Broadfoot, and his wife Mamie, were residing at 214 East Pecan Street. He was a salesman for J. E. Stevens Company. Sidney Sackett, and his wife Pauline, were also residing at this address. He was the owner of the West Texas Typewriter Exchange. Rooming at this address was John J. Clark, who was a clerk at the New Moore Hotel.; Miss Alma Ferguson, a bookkeeper for West Texas Utilities Company; and Norman A. MacDonald, a bookkeeper at Jareki Manufacturing Company." (Coleman City Directory, 1929 - Hudspeth.)
The 1948 map indicates that this dwelling was then being used as an upholstry shop.
