1. Lawrence-Hubert House Marker

Inscription. Charles Walter (C.W.) Lawrence (1859- 1935) and his wife, Mary O. (Hayden) Lawrence (1874-1945), built this house on Calvert Street (later N. Central Ave.) for their family from 1896-1901. Believed to have been built by local lumberyard owner John B. McLane, the two-story frame house was designed in classical revival architectural style. Details include porch columns with corinthian capitals and decorative corbels and balustrades. C.W. Lawrence went on to become a prominent leader and businessman in Cameron. In 1946, the house sold to Dr. J.S. Hubert (1878-1963) and Edith (Foster) Hubert (1901-1981). Mrs. Hubert operated a kindergarten in the home from 1954-1976. Recorded Texas Historic Landmark - 2020
