John Turner Richardson, Jr. built this house in 1927 after the Swastika Oil Field was discovered on his father’s ranch in Archer County in 1923. In 1929, he added an extension to the North but it was not masonry as the first part of the house. During the depression Jr. passed the house to his dad and his brother Curtis.
I am still as strong today as I was in the day Moses sent me; as my strength was then, so my strength is now, for war and for going out and coming in. Joshua 14:11 NASBS

We call him “Brother Brylen” because he loves God’s word and will occasionally take his mom’s phone to a quiet room and record himself preaching a sermon. He’s nine, and he’s precious.
