Warren Tully Beverly (1857-1903), a native of Collin County who attended Spring Creek School and Plano Institute, studied law in the office of Joseph W. Baines, grandfather of Lyndon Baines Johnson. He served as county attorney and later as judge of the 59th district court. In 1886 he built this Victorian house for his family. In 1903 it was sold to Louisa Kirkpatrick Harris, and members of the Harris family lived here until 1960.
