703 S. MAGNOLIA - BUILT 1901-02 (LOOK LEFT)

John S. Moad probably designed this two-story Queen Anne home with varied textures, eclectic features and flat-roofed corner tower. The original owners were prominent Alabama-born men’s clothier and civic leader, Walter B. Flanagan and his wife, Louise Jowers Flanagan, who was a Palestine native. Mr. Flanagan worked for Sanger Brothers in Dallas before opening his own store in Palestine.
