By 1904, these dwellings had been torn down, probably in preparation
for building the home of Augustus D. Dunn (1861 - 1918, buried at Coleman
Cemetery) and his wife Ellen (Ratliff) Dunn (1868 - 1953, buried at Coleman
Cemetery). A vacant lot is shown on a 1904 map. Note early
alternate street numbers. |

The old Dunn home was torn down in the early 1950's to make way for
an implement lot. This lot was later divided, creating 300
West Pecan Street and 306 West Pecan
Street. The office of the Coleman Production Credit Association
was built at 300 West Pecan Street. Campbell's Pharmacy was built
at 306 West Pecan Street. |
