The National Register of Historic Places indicates that the architects were H.D. Timmons and Buell & Connelley. The house is a Recorded Texas Historic Landmark, and was approved for a Texas Historical Marker in 1978. It provides some background:
Erected in 1893 for Edward Williams, this Victorian home reflects the affluence of local cotton merchants during the late 19th century. Waxahachie contractor C.J. Griggs supervised the construction. Beaded boards and shingling decorate the exterior walls, and elaborate Eastlake Style detailing adorns the porch. Williams sold the house in 1902 to R.K. Erwin, another prominent businessman. The Erwin family owned it until 1943.
