John M. and Lottie D. Moore House, Neoclassical residence in Richmond, Texas.
The John M. and Lottie D. Moore House displays classical symmetry with a prominent front porch, four bedrooms, and a distinctive center tower with cupola.
Built in 1883 for newlyweds John and Lottie Moore, the house underwent substantial Classical Revival modifications in 1905 by architects C.H. Page and Brothers of Austin.
The First Baptist Church of Richmond held its initial meetings in this house before establishing its permanent location in 1889.
Located at 406 S. Fifth Street, the residence functions as part of the Fort Bend Museum complex and maintains seven original coal-burning fireplaces.
Lottie Moore inherited the land from her grandmother Nancy Gray Spencer Barnett, who arrived in Texas with Stephen F. Austin's first colonists in 1824.
