OHU50K NOTES 

This c.1901 fixer upper appears to be the oldest home on the block. I am surmising here, but the name of the street probably was named for the Hughes family of Attalla who were numerous at the turn of the century with one branch owning a drug store. It could follow that this home was built by them, but I am just guessing. In any event, by 1954, Mr. and Mrs. T.N. Johnson lived there. Mr. Johnson worked for the Midwestern Contract Company.
