Marker Text:

John Horace Bland and his wife Edna built this home in 1902. In 1910 John Michael Dullahan bought it and lived here with his parents until 1917. Two years later it was sold to Louis Phillip Bazzano, a local cobbler, and his wife Annie Drucilla (Wilson), leaders of the community and the First Baptist Church. They conveyed the house to their daughter Opal in 1937. Typical of other local turn-of-the-century homes, it features Victorian styling with Queen Anne influences. Recorded Texas Historic Landmark - 1981
