Take a tour through Weatherford’s
history during the 35th Annual
Candlelight Tour of Homes
Russell/Blowers Home - 414 West Spring
The Blowers home was on tour last year as our “before” house. With the restoration complete, the
owners are once again opening the doors to show off their progress. This Queen Anne-styled home
was first built in 1902 by George C. and Maggie E. Poston. Mr. Poston joined forces with J.D. Baker to
form Baker-Poston Company in Weatherford about 1883.
