Margaret Ruth Cook Kennedy writes: This is the home of my Great, Great Grandfather, Daniel Jesse Proctor. I just discovered this was his home when I talked to the Monroe County Historical Society earlier this month. Here is the information they gave me from a book called “The Forsyth Driving Tour.” “This is the “Proctor-Taylor-Hill Home.” This house of seven gables is located on Indian Springs Drive, one block from the First Baptist Church. The style is Gothic Revival. About a century ago, the land was sold to R.P. Trippe. After a house was built on the property, it passed successively from Mrs. Julia A. Proctor to C.A. King, to R.B. Stephens, and then to the D.J. Proctors, who enlarged the dwelling and lived there for twenty-three years, 1890-1913. R.L. Fort became the next owner and he and his daughter, Mrs. May Taylor and her family, lived there for forty-five years until it passed through several hands, the Ira Iveys and Charles E. Floyds to Karl B. Hill, who is the present owner. (He died in October 2008.). Originally there was a well at the back door and a kitchen separated from the main house by a breezeway. The well has been covered, but the main part of the dwelling remains intact with the seven gables, windows to the floor and gingerbread trim edging the porch which extends all around the front and two sides of the house.”
Here is my lineage connected to this house: Daniel Jesse Proctor and Elline Simmons Proctor had a son named William Terrell Proctor. William Terrell Proctor and Lollie Kennedy Proctor had a daughter named Margaret Proctor. Margaret Proctor and Albert Dodd had a daughter named Margaret Elaine Dodd. Margaret Elaine Dodd and James Thomas Cook had a daughter named Margaret Ruth Cook. That is me!
