Rogers in Waxahachie, Ellis County, Texas, built around 1895 by an unknown architect or builder. It sits in a residential area south of the central business district.","why_significant":"The inventory form cites architecture as its significance. It calls the house a good and unaltered example of an L-plan dwelling, the most common house type built in Waxahachie during the 1890s.","narrative":"Built around 1895 at 612 S. Rogers in Waxahachie, this one-story frame house follows the L-plan, the most common house type built in the city during the 1890s. Its weatherboard siding, hip roof with gables, and box eaves are typical of the form. A three-bay porch with a shed roof sits within the front-projecting wing and has turned wood posts, squared balusters, and jig-sawn brackets. Decorative touches include imbricated shingles in the gable ends, cutaway corners on the projecting wing with brackets supporting the gable, and pedimented window surrounds. Windows are wood sash, double-hung, with one-over-one lights. The house was recorded as a good and unaltered example of its type, which is the basis for its recognition as part of a group of Waxahachie historic resources. The Plumhoff family sold the property in 1923, and the building remains in residential use in good condition. The architect and builder are not known.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"L-plan","criteria":[],"status_note":"Present condition is listed as good, and the house is still in residential use.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:54:21.168201-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/opastorage/live/74/9689/40968974/content/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_TX/86002342.pdf"},"photo":null,"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/40968974","wikipedia":null,"wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q110001994"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/texas/ellis-county/plumhoff-house-86002342/"}
