Notes
  • Significance: In 1877 George T. Reynolds and his wife Bettie Built, on the Clear Fork of the Brazos River, a sophisticated two-story stone house with hipped dormer windows. Shortly after, they constructed a barn of similar style using lumber freighted from the Texas and Pacific Railroad terminus just west of Dallas. In 1866, Reynolds met Mart B. Gentry on a cattle drive and hired him to work on his ranch. Gentry eventually became foreman of the ranch. In 1884, Gentry purchased the stone house and pine barn that Reynolds had built. Gentry built a ranch of his own and also raised thoroughbred race horses. The barn had six stalls for the thoroughbred horses with an adjacent tack room and medicine cabinet. Part of the barn was used to store s Spaulding hack and buggy. Grain bins were built to store grain for the horses. The bins each had a chute to dispense the corn and feed more easily. The barn had a second story loft for storing hay.
