Battle of San Jacinto veteran Greenleaf Fisk (1807-1888) immigrated to Texas in 1834 from Milton, Kentucky. He and his wife, Mary Hawkins, moved to Brown County in 1860. Fisk served in numerous county positions including judge, clerk, treasurer and justice of the peace. He also taught in early Brown County schools. Later, he gave land to form the city of Brownwood. Built between 1878 and 1888, his home features beautiful rough sandstone. The quoins, window lintels and sills and door surrounds display the notable craftsmanship with which this house was built. The porch was added later. Other than a short time, the house has passed in and out of the extended Fisk family in the ensuing years.
