Joseph and Ruth (Huffman) Baines, maternal
grandparents of President Lyndon Baines Johnson, built their home
here in 1904, following Joseph’s service in the Civil War and a
career as a journalist, Texas Secretary of State, Legislator and
attorney. The couple used prefabricated cement blocks, made locally
by Hugo and Henry Basse, also known as Basse blocks on the exterior
of the home. The widowed Ruth sold the home in 1907, the same year
daughter Rebekah wed Sam Johnson.
