In 1886 the home was sold to the estate of "Galveston News" editor Willard B. Richardson. Later Richardson's daughter Caroline managed the property. She was the wife of Dr. H. P. Cooke, city health officer and dean of the state medical branch here. In 1935 the house was sold to John A. and Emma Jeanne Parker.
