"Col. Roberts and his family lived at this house from 1901
until 1914, at which time he was appointed to a position in
Washington.
"After they moved to Washington, they sold the house in 1918
to C. F. Selman, a local druggist, ... In 1924, the house was sold to the Georgia State Bank, and in turn
sold in 1927 to Mrs. T. N. Mozley, Sr.
"The property remained in the Mozley family until 1971. ... Their son, Harold, who also
lived there briefly after World War II, served as mayor from 1946
to 1947. Upon Mrs. Mozley's death in 1964, the house was willed
to her two sons, and in 1971, Paul H. Mozley's estate deeded the
property to three investors who sold it within a few weeks to
Katherine P. Antrobus.
"Mrs. Antrobus owned it until 1978, when she sold it to Mary
E. Turner and Walter H. Turner, who did extensive upgrading and
renovation on the property. Mr. Turner sold it on September 16,
1986 to the Cultural Arts Council of Douglasville and Douglas
County, Inc. to be used as a Cultural Arts Center and art
gallery. It has been in that use ever since." ~ NRHP Nomination Form
