Notes
  • Significance: John Sydnor, original owner of the house, was an important figure in early Galveston history. He was mayor of the city, commission merchant and auctioneer. Sampson Heidenheimer, who later made various changes to the building, was a prominent Galveston merchant. The architect of the present appearance of the building, Nicholas Clayton, was Galveston's foremost professional designer and one of Texas' leading nineteenth century architects.
