Historic name: First Methodist Church Parsonage (built 1950 (1935))

About This Property

The First Methodist Church parsonage was constructed in 1945 to replace an old parsonage that was about to fall down. Lumber from the old parsonage was salvaged for use in the new building, but the original square nails could not be used again. While the parsonage was being rebuilt, Reverend S.W. Reynolds and his wife lived with the Rosier family across the street. 

The new pastor, Reverend W.E. Gordon and his wife lived in the church Fellowship Hall until the parsonage was completed. The parsonage was given a yellow brick veneer to match the church building on the adjoining lot. The parsonage exhibits Minimal Traditional influences such as minimal eave overhangs, front-facing gable and minimal detailing. 

This building is an officially recognized historic resource of the City of Mansfield.
