Marker Text: Terry Thompson (1879-1948) began his career as an Amarillo businessman. He wed Georgie Sneed (1879-1972), daughter of prominent cattleman Joe Sneed, in 1908. He soon established Thompson Ranch in Moore County and also succeeded in real estate development. The couple, active in the community, built this home in 1929-30 in the prestigious Wolflin Estates through the Reppert Lumber Co. Frank Jesse was the contractor on the house, which was influenced by the Italian Renaissance and Mediterranean Revival styles. Original features include iron balconies, Palladian-style porches and a clay tile roof. (2003)
