History

This converted home was originally built in 1935 at a Mercantile Store on Hwy 65. The style of masonry and year built, points toward this being one of Silas Owens’ earliest works as a Mason, but it is not yet recorded on the Historic Registry.

Silas Owens (1907–1960)

Per Encyclopedia of Arkansas

“Silas Owens Sr. was an African American stonemason, carpenter, and farmer from Faulkner County. Owens was known in the central Arkansas area for his superior craftsmanship and a vernacular style of construction known by the twenty-first century as the Mixed Masonry. This style of architecture could be found throughout Arkansas, and there were many contemporary masons who utilized the technique; however, Owens’s work stood out. His artistic eye, exhaustive work ethic, and exacting coursing methods resulted in a deliberate pattern that became his trademark.”
