George washington grover biography examples
Veteran of the Republic of Texas Army, artist, writer, merchant, and civic leader George Washington Grover (1819-1901) and wife Eliza Crane (1834-1916) began construction on this home in 1859. The southern side-hall townhouse is one of Galveston's best preserved Antebellum buildings featuring Federal and Greek revival details.
The house survived the 1863 Battle of Galveston, the Fire of 1885, and the catastrophic hurricanes of 1900, 1943, and 2008. The exterior and interior walls are made entirely of bricks that were manufactured on Galveston Island.
The porch was added after the 1900 storm. The house remains one of the finest examples of mid-nineteenth century architecture in Galveston.
