History
3
Built in the 1860s, this house was a forerunner of the ranch style. Since 1878 it has remained in the family of A. V. Doak, Taylor’s first doctor, an organizer of the mule-drawn streetcar line, and a civic leader. His son, Dr. Edmond Doak, born in 1878, spent his lifetime in the house, and his grandson is Dr. E. K. Doak of Houston.
