Historical Information:
153 Moultrie Street had several owners as an empty lot, but the house construction was either done by Mr. Edward J. Murphy or the next owner, Mr. F. J. H. Haesloop who purchased the property in 1922. Mr. Haesloop used the house as rental property for a short time before he sold it to United States Plant Quarantine Inspector J. T. Rogers in 1924. Mr. and Mrs. Rogers lived in the house until 1929, and then began using it as rental property. Mr. Rogers sold the house to Mrs. Frances McN. Kremer in 1932. Mrs. Kremer and her husband lived in the house for several years until 1941 she sold the house to Henry H. Ridgeway. When Mr. Ridgeway died in 1947, his two daughters, Mrs. Irene R. Haygood and Mrs. May Watson, received the house. Mrs. Ridgeway occupied the house. In 1964, Mrs. Watson conveyed her interest in the house to her sister. The current owner, Thomas Wright, bought the house from Mrs. Ridgeway in 1971.
