Family History

Leo Lewis Wilson (1860-1943) and his wife Amanda Dallam Wilson (1865-1932) were the proud owners of this beautiful home from 1910 until Leo’s death in 1943. The couple had three children, Frank, Bessie, and Irma, but only Frank lived in the home by the time the Wilsons purchased this home free and clear. You see, Leo was a farmer, and as many farmers did, when he retired he sold his farm and then built this home in town. You can tell by all the stunning elements, that Leo wanted this home to be a showplace for his beloved wife Amanda.
