This wonderful house on Foote Street was constructed in circa 1905-1910 during a period when this style was most prolifically constructed in the region.
The Rock Hill Record reported on July 12, 1909 – “Mr. J. Edgar Poag was in Chester and conducted an auction sale. He sold Mr. L.D. Childs house and lot on the corner of Foote Street and Hemphill Ave., and also sold 13 lots along the Southern Railroad in the rear of the residences of L.D. Childs, J.C. Carpenter, and L.T. Nichols.” (R&R.com is unsure as to which corner, either #118 or #119 Foote Street being the original home of Mr. Childs who later moved to York Street.)
