Russell, the original owner of the Russell House, was one of Brooksville’s most prominent residents during the 1920s. The home is important locally as a mail-order catalogue house. The house was shipped by rail to Brooksville from Cairo, Illinois, in spring 1925. The house filled two boxcars of the Tampa Northern Railroad and required two days to unload. Private. NR 1999."
