Colleyville in Tarrant County, Texas — The American South (West South Central)
Webb House
Mr. Webb, a Tennessee native, came to Bransford in 1897. He served as a section laborer and section foreman with the Cotton Belt Railroad for 44 years. The owner of Bransford's last general store, Mr. Webb was also a trustee of the local Woodmen of the World, commander of the Maccabee Lodge, trustee of the Pleasant Run School, and the unofficial "mayor" of Bransford.
The Webb House was restored through a community effort to preserve the home as an example of the regional architecture of the early 1900s, and for it historic association with Bransford and the Cotton Belt Railroad.
