| Facility: | Samuel May Williams Home |
| Description: | Samuel May Williams, Founder of the Texas Navy and secretary to Stephen F. Austin, teamed up with Michel Menard to lay plans for a new city; Williams’s house,built in 1839 is second oldest in the city he created, second only to Menard’s. This unpretentious Creole planter’s-style house includes a romantic rooftop cupola (restored after being destroyed by fire in the 1890s). The first floor was buried during the grade raising after the 1900 storm. A self-guided video tour gives a vivid dramatization of the lives of the Williams frontier family, bringing the past alive. |
