    Hello everyone! Thanks for watching!
    I know the background music is repetitive. I’m going to re-upload the video with no music. I’ll link it back here when I get to it in a few days. While you’re waiting, feel free to keep commenting on how annoying it is 😂

      I came here to suggest either different music or none at all 😂 I couldn’t tune it out, it got into my brain and now it’s playing all by itself over and over again 🤪🙉 but I loved seeing the house, I’d never heard of it and have only been to Galveston a couple of times.

    I lived in Galveston, graduated Ball high in 81, moved to Houston, then moved back in 2004, bought a house that was built in 1915. I found all kinds of cool stuff in the attic and walls as I re-stored it. One Item was a letter inviting the owner of the house at the time dated 1919 to a barn party at the Bartons house in Austin ( Barton springs) their grammar would be equivalent to a 5 year old today. Another item was a food menu from a steamship , a ham sandwich was 5 cents. do not know the year.

    I grew up in Galveston. In 1965 this house was for sale for about $15,000. We looked at it. It needed a LOT of work. The owners were living in it but only using a few rooms. The "sun room" was nice and a couple of bedrooms upstairs. We knew we didn't have the money or the skill to make this house complete. Not long after that the Galveston Garden Society bought it. I don't think they did anything upstairs but did work on the down stairs. In 1966 we moved to the mainland. We've been back afew times. Sooooo different from my childhood.

    I was married in the Michael B Menard House in 1998. It was absolutely beautiful! At that time the renovation was much more recent. We had the most amazing florist, and catering, all Galveston businesses. It was just lovely and such a cherished memory, and privilege. God Bless Texas and God Bless Galveston ❤

    My husband lived on 01/2. He would always tell a joke that he had to walk a half of block to ‘P’. He graduated Ball High school in 1962. We visited Galveston many times, but he never mentioned this history. It’s a lovely home. He would always tell me about hurricane parties. His family lived in a small frame home near the center of the island. I think he said the only time they left was when Carla came through. He loved living on the island. He said there was always something to do! I miss him and his stories. I’ve only been back once since he passed away. Unfortunately, it’s just not the same without him. Looking forward to more podcasts about the island.

    I've lived in a few apartments partitioned out from old houses in Galveston that had box locks. This was in the early 1970s. I distinctly remember the one that had been painted sort of a sea green, but was not well prepped and half the paint had peeled off. That wasn't the same place that had a gravity fed flush toilet. When people used to say, "pull the chain", they meant exactly that. The tank was as near the ten foot ceiling as possible with a long chain running down to hand height. It had a beautiful carved wooden piece on the end that fit the hand perfectly.

    The Stewart Guarantee Title Company was the very first of it's kind in this country. In my early 20's I worked for a title company and then settlement companies on and off for 10 years. I had the pleasure of meeting the then Mr Stewart that had come up to visit those companies who underwrite through them. He was a very down to earth person and could tell some stories! I'll never forget him (this was nearly 40 years ago so I'm quite sure his children or grandchildren now run the company).

    Great niche history lesson! I moved to Texas 36 years ago from Md. I have a degree in American Studies, and loved teaching my sons Texas history. My 1st history lesson was about the Galveston flood, and saw a documentary about an orphanage where children & caretakers were washed off the roof - awful! I recently read that Galveston was one of Texas' most populated city at one point. Great video!😂❤

    This is a great video for Texas History.
    If anybody’s in the area, some other cool Texas homes along the Texas Gulf Coast are the Hogg Plantation in West Columbia (it’s a state park) and the Admiral of the Texas Navy’s home is still standing in Matagorda and I believe that house was built in 1830. It’s a good example of the crude architecture style mentioned in this video.
    Also, the cemetery where Stephen F. Austin was originally buried is at the Gulf Prairie Presbyterian Church in Jones Creek which is well worth the trip to see.

    4:16--She says "They have Doric columns on them..." I believe those columns are Ionic, indicated by the top scrolls and some ornamentation at the base. Doric columns don't have the scrolls, they are usually flat top columns and no ornaments at the base it just rests plainly on the surface. Doric columns wouldn't be supported in the square bases seen here, you would see all of the column - all the way to the floor. thanx for the tour.

My brother also is a witness of the spirit and I've always wanted to go knock on their door now and say I've got to ask you have you ever seen heard or felt the spirit that's in your home?

    I noticed they (or she) can't do those references to religion. It was THE Bishop's Palace, right across from the Cathedral. When I was a young girl the Bishop had a large diocese and would only be in residence for short periods in the larger parishes. I once had tea with the Bishop in The Bishop's palace along with classmates. Also, Mardi Gras, for those who don't know, was a Catholic celebration. It translates in English as 'Fat Tuesday', and is the day before Ash Wednesday, which signals the beginning of Lent Lent is a forty day period when Catholics don't eat meat and often fast. Lent ends on Easter Sunday. Of course, the day before it begins became a time for feasting and celebration in recognition of the rigors of the coming forty days. As everything over time, it's been preempted and perverted into what we see now.

    I think there are triple hung windows at the League-Kempner House in Galveston. It’s located in an upstairs bedroom.
    Correction: the windows in the dining room and the upstairs bedroom have "slide up windows." The lower window opens up to allow a person to pass through to a porch or balcony.
