One of the very early houses in Jefferson-- apparently built by Mr. and Mrs. Dan Parks in 1860, when city was known as greatest river port in the southwest. Bought 1861 by S. Marsh (1811-1870), this was called the Marsh Place for many years, although owned in turn by various businessmen. For over half a century it was home of Sarah Terhune Taylor (Mrs. H. C. Taylor), a socially prominent charter member of 1881 Club, one of Texas' oldest women's clubs. Recorded Texas Historic Landmark - 1972
