Saville-Oxford-Brown

 

489 Orange Street, NE

 
 
 

 

            This Queen Anne style home is another example of those constructed in Dawson around the turn of the twentieth century.  It has a wraparound veranda supported by 23 tapered columns.  The style leads one to believe this to be another F. A. Ruggles design.

            The Saville family lived in the home until 1948.  It was then occupied by four spinster/widow ladies.  In 1972, Mittie Ann Brown inherited the house from her aunt, Mrs. Neva T. Oxford.
