Historical Marker:
George Hill (1878-1958) came to Texas from Tennessee as a child. His family settled in Moody and he worked on family farm. He began working in a local hardware store when he was nineteen and later purchased the store. Hill had this home built for his family in 1904 and sold it to his brother Charles in 1910. The bungalow, which exhibits Queen Anne style influences, is typical of those built by many families at the turn of the century.
