Description

Marsh Calloway and Catherine Calloway (Kate) home. The 14 room house was about 2 blocks south of the present 7400 block of Baker Boulevard in Richland Hills. The Marsh Farm sprawled some 2,100 acres from where the railroad tracks cross Interstate 820 to the site of City Hall today. Marsh was so impressed with the William Osborn Reves (later changed to Reeves) home in Birdville that he built a near duplicate in the late 1910s or early 1920s, adding extensively to the house that his grandfather or father had built in the late 19th century.
