Marker Text: ​This was the home of John Henry Mayfield (1865-1954), his wife Ettie Monroe Alsobrook (1862-1957) and their three daughters. The Mayfields moved to Holland about 1908 where Mr. Mayfield owned and operated a local cotton gin. Local contractors, Frank Wood & Sons built this house in 1914. The craftsman-influenced Prairie School building features emphasized horizontal lines, a wraparound porch, double gallery, and fine interior woodwork and craftsmanship. (1995)
