THOMAS-FOREMAN HISTORICAL HOME

MUSKOGEE, OK

The Thomas-Foreman Historical Home is a two-story Queen Anne-style house located in Muskogee, Oklahoma. Built in 1905 by prominent attorney and civic leader E. W. Thomas, the home was later acquired by the Foreman family, who lived in it for over 70 years.

The exterior of the home is characterized by its asymmetrical shape, steeply-pitched roof, and decorative woodwork. Inside, visitors can explore the home's original furnishings, including period pieces and family heirlooms. The first floor features a parlor, dining room, and library, while the second floor houses the family's bedrooms and a nursery.

The Thomas-Foreman Historical Home is also notable for its connection to Oklahoma's history. E. W. Thomas was involved in the state's early politics and helped draft Oklahoma's first constitution. The Foreman family, meanwhile, played a significant role in the development of Muskogee, with patriarch Samuel Foreman serving as mayor and founder of the city's first bank.

Today, the Thomas-Foreman Historical Home is open to the public for tours and events, providing a glimpse into the lives of Muskogee's early settlers and their contributions to the state's history.
