- Dr. Rigdon Osmond Dees (1884-1954) and Helen Hazel Groome Dees (1891-1988) were the original owners. Rigdon bought the property in 1913, and they sold it in 1933, although by 1923 they had moved to 305 S. Mendenhall Street. Dr. Dees was a physician and surgeon. He practiced with his brother, Ralph Erastus Dees (1881-1957). Rigdon and Helen moved to Myrtle Beach in 1952. They were the paternal grandparents of noted media figure Rigdon Osmond Dees III (b. 1950).
