1890’s. “Ralph Banks Stephens gifted .6 acres to his son who built a charming little cottage on which is still there today. The cupola, the balcony over the front door, and the odd side room on the left side are able to be seen in the pic.”

Posted card from 1901. “…Pearl Stephens (whom a number of schools in Macon are named after) and her mother as seen in the front yard, if viewed closely you can see the odd room that is no longer present on the left side of the house.”

From around the 1940’s.
