This is a historic site for the masons. They came into existence in Carrollton around 1885, they used this building from 1890 until 1931, when the built their own lodge south of the current courthouse.
"The two buildings adjacent to each other on the north side of the square next to the Mandeville
Building were also apparently constructed between 1885 and 1890. The building at 410 Adamson
Square that now houses Norton's [sic] Bookstore served at various times as a general store, a grocery,
and a hardware store. To the west of this building, at 404 Adamson Square, was a furniture store
and a funeral parlor for many years, as well as having an upstairs meeting facility for the Masons and
later the Independent Order of Odd Fellows (IOOF)." ~ NRHP Nomination Form
