Built in 1890-91, the Dunlap-Simpson House is a fine example of Queen Anne Revival architecture, with among its many rooms two hexagons and two octagons. It was built by Judge Oscar E. Dunlap (1849-1925), a banker, political leader, chairman of Texas Council of Defense in World War I, Good Roads advocate, industrialist, humanitarian, and founder of the Sims Library in Waxahachie. Later owners included Mr. and Mrs. E.B. Prince, Mrs. Sadie R. Hardesty, and Mr. and Mrs. Max H. Simpson.
