Alabama native Robert Augustus Horlock (1849-1926) came to Navasota in 1871. Here he became a prominent businessman and civic leader. He and his wife, Agnes (White), had this home built in the early 1890s. The house, which remained in the Horlock family for nearly 100 years, exhibits influences of the Eastlake and Stick Styles of architecture. Prominent features include the corner porch, the arched windows with small gabled hoods, and the decorative woodwork.
