The builder is possibly John Martin.","why_significant":"The nomination holds that the house is one of the best examples of the modified L-plan residence, a common house type in McKinney. It is also tied to S.H. Fox, a retired pioneer farmer and five-time county commissioner, and later to R.L. Moulden, who served as county judge while living there.","narrative":"Built in 1903 at 808 Tucker in McKinney, this one-and-a-half-story frame house follows a modified L-plan, a house type common in the city at the turn of the twentieth century. It has weatherboard siding, a hip roof with gables, wood double-hung windows, and a three-bay porch with a shed roof wrapping the south and east sides. Pent roofs, shingled facing, cornice molding over the windows and a hipped dormer add detail. A wood frame garage and a shed stand on the lot. It was built for S.H. Fox, a retired pioneer farmer who served five times as county commissioner, and local builder John Martin is believed to have constructed it. Later, R.L. Moulden lived here while serving as Collin County judge. The nomination ranks it among the best examples of its plan type in McKinney. It remains in residential use and is in good condition, in an area northwest of the central business district.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":"Architect unknown; contractor John Martin (?)","architectural_style":"Modified L-plan dwelling","criteria":[],"status_note":"Described as in good condition and still in residential use, with a wood frame garage and a shed on the property.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:54:21.377852-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/opastorage/live/83/9685/40968583/content/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_TX/87001709.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/87001709/3869ac5d9f-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/87001709/3869ac5d9f-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 3.0","author":"Geeklet42","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:808_Tucker,_McKinney,_TX.jpg\" rel=\"noopener\">Geeklet42</a>, <a href=\"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0\" rel=\"license noopener\">CC BY-SA 3.0</a>, via Wikimedia Commons","source_page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:808_Tucker,_McKinney,_TX.jpg"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/40968583","wikipedia":null,"wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q110001811"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/texas/collin-county/fox-s-h-house-87001709/"}
