This house was built in the Gothic Revival style by James P. Gilmer (the first baby born in Honey Grove in 1846) around 1875. The Gilmers, who at one time owned most of the land on which the town is built, retained this whole lot. Miss Betty Gilmer inherited the house from her mother, Cornelia Gilmer, at her mother's death. She lived there until her death in 1954. Then the house went to Henry Dickson, who was a nephew of the Gilmers and who the Gilmers had raised. John Dickson inherited the house when his father died in 1970. Ina Peal and Jack Cobb Luttrell lived in the house from 1968-1972. John and Louise Dickson sold the house to Max Covington in 1972. The house burned in the 2010s and was demolished.

This home was begun by Mr. and Mrs. Fred Hockaday in 1892 and completed in 1895. The Hockadays lived there for a short time before selling the house to W. D. Wilkins. Through the years ownership of the home passed through heirs of the Wilkins. In the late 1930's the home was turned into apartments. In 1950, B. M. Coopers purchased the house. Today it is the Cooper-Sorrells Funeral Home. Over the years the gingerbread on the porch was removed.
