It is also tied to town founders and notable residents, including Daniel Frederick, writer John Donald Wade and the Rumph family of the fruit industry.","narrative":"West Main Street Residential District in Marshallville, Georgia, takes in houses, a Methodist church and a cemetery along West Main and McCaskill Streets, spread across 168.5 acres. Both streets are tree-lined, and the lots are generous, with large mansions standing near small cottages. Several homes have formal boxwood gardens, brick walks and sculpture. The architecture ranges from early Greek Revival homes such as the McCaskill-Rumph, Camp-Slappey and Frederick-Wade houses, to Victorian adaptations and the Neo-classical Samuel Henry Rumph House, designed by Peter Dennis. The district was listed as the town's most fashionable residential section. Daniel Frederick sold the lots that became the core of Marshallville and gave land for the railroad. Writer John Donald Wade later lived in the same house and promoted local beautification. Planters, merchants, railroad workers and educators lived side by side, and despite alterations the area remains a nineteenth-century neighborhood.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":"Peter Dennis (designer of the Samuel Henry Rumph House); Eliot, Dunwoody & Oliver of Macon (Goodwin-Bickley House)","architectural_style":"Greek Revival, Victorian, Neo-classical, adapted Gothic (church)","criteria":[],"status_note":"Listed as occupied, private ownership, with uses including private residence, religious, agriculture and cemetery.
