D. J. Nobles was the builder/architect.","why_significant":"The nomination argues the house is a very fine example of late-nineteenth century Victorian Eclectic architecture in a small Georgia town, with notable tongue-and-groove interior woodwork. The property also has historic plantings, including two Japanese japonicas and a centipede lawn introduced to the area by DeLoach. It was the home of George W. DeLoach, a farmer, businessman, politician and civic leader who helped found Hagan.","narrative":"Built in 1896, this two-story Victorian Eclectic house sits on a half-acre lot in Hagan, Evans County, Georgia. Local builder D. J. Nobles constructed it from timber taken from the landholdings of its first owner, George W. DeLoach. The multi-gabled frame house has a wraparound two-story porch with sawn and turned woodwork, corbeled chimneys, and large stained-glass windows imported from Europe. Inside, extensive tongue-and-groove woodwork, which was Nobles' trademark, covers ceilings and walls. Nearly all of the original outbuildings survive, including a smokehouse, potato bank, boiler shelter, dairy, barn and flower pit, showing how the family provided its own food. The grounds hold older plantings and a centipede lawn that DeLoach brought from Florida. DeLoach, who came to Hagan when the railroad created the town, ran its first store and bank, served on its first city council, and petitioned for the creation of Evans County. The property was listed for its architecture, landscape and local history.","period_of_significance":"1895-1896","architect_builder":"D. J.
