The house and other buildings on the property fell into disarray from neglect until newlyweds Joe and Lena Webb bought and renovated the building following World War Two.
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988 thanks to efforts by the then-owners, the Webb family, particularly Lena Webb.[1]
