M. Castleman for his family more than 125 years ago. The masonry residence was home to four generations of the Castleman family before St. David's Episcopal Church acquired it in 1963. The house is a surviving example of the nineteenth century residential structures once found throughout downtown Austin. CASTLEMAN'S EARLY YEARS R. M. Castleman came to Texas at the age of four. His father Andrew Castleman moved his family, including six year old Margaret and two year old Robert, from Nashville,'Tennessee to Bastrop County in 1840. The 1850 Texas census lists the Castleman family, with the addition of the Texas born son Richard, as residents of Bastrop County. The entry for Andrew E. Castleman states he is a 47 year old fanner with $1000 of real estate. Another group of Bastrop County settlers, the Smith family, was to become well known to the Castlemans over the coming years. Alfred Smith was born in North Carolina in 1815, and moved to Bastrop County as a young man in the 1830's. He was a farmer and owned a sawmill business, having contracted with the town of Bastrop for the sole right to cut timber in the Pinery for a period of ten years. His wife Ann, who was about ten years his junior, came to Texas from Tennessee. Their daughter Amelia E. was born in 1842 in Texas. By the time of the 1850 census, the Smiths had moved to land outside Austin, near Webberville. The entry listed Alfred Smith as a farmer with real estate valued at $6,000. Living with them was James W. Smith, Alfred's younger brother. He was born in North Carolina in 1830 and came to Texas in 1838. His entry in the 1850 census notes he was a 19 year old resident with Alfred, Ann and Amelia Smith. He attended college in Kentucky and studied law in Tennessee, where he got a license to practice law 1852. He returned to Texas and was admitted to the Texas bar in 1853. He and Margaret E. Castleman, Andrew Castleman's oldest child, were married in 1854 and moved to Austin. By the time of the 1860 census, Andrew Castleman and his two younger sons, Robert and Richard, had moved from Bastrop County to Coryell County. Andrew was still a farmer, but had improved bis lot considerably as evidenced by his $4,000 of real estate and $2,000 personal estate. His son Robert, age 21 at the time, was a herdsman, with a $100 personal estate. Richard, age 18, had no occupation. R. M. Castleman, Andrew's oldest son, had remained in Bastrop County, his place of residence in the 1860 census. He was a 25 year old man, occupied as a claims agent, with a personal estate of $2,000. During the 1850's, R. M. worked as a country school teacher and served as Deputy Sheriff of Bastrop County. A legal advertisement in the Bastrop Advertiser of March 14, 1857, offered his services as a collector and agent, as follows: The undersigned, Deputy Sheriff of Bastrop Countr, tenders his services to the public as a Collector and GENERAL AGENT for non-residents. Persons residing at a distance, having business of this character to transact in this or the neighboring counties can save time and expense by entrusting the same to his charge and may rely in all cases upon his prosecuting their claims to a final settlement with promptness and dispatch. R. M. Castleman Bastrop, Nov. 1st, '56. In August of 1858, be ran for and won re-election to the office of Assessor and Collector of Bastrop County, beating his opponent George All~ 376 to 300 votes. CASTLEMAN IN AUSTIN R. M. Castleman moved to Austin shortly before enlisting in the Confederate Army in 1861. Before he left for the war, he sold all his possessions, earning several thousand dollars. He - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - converted it to US twenty-dollar gold coins, put the coins in pickle jars, and buried them on the Webberville farm of Alfred Smith, to be stored until his return. (His grandson, A. C. Bull, said Castleman believed in the Southern cause enough to fight for it, but he was dubious of the ultimate outcome of the struggle.) Attaining the rank of major, he was seriously wounded during the Battle of Chickamauga Creek, September 19-20, 1863, and was furloughed home. He returned destitute and in poor health, but his planning before the war served him well. He found his gold stake intact, at a time when Confederate currency was useless, and was able to start his own mercantile busin~ in Austin. He was also able to invest in Austin real estate. He made his first recorded purchase together with Alfred Smith, his old friend and neighbor, in November · 1865. The two men bought a half lot on the west side of Congress Avenue between Pecan (6th) and Bois D'Arc (7th) Streets from Abner H. Cook for $2,000. .- Austin was established as the capital of the Republic of Texas in 1839. Judge Edwin Waller and a team of surveyors laid out the city that same year. The original city plan was a simple grid of 179 business and residential blocks, four public squares, and designated areas for public buildings and institutions. They sited the city on the north bank of the Colorado River, situated between Waller Creek on the east and Shoal Creek on the west Waller named streets running east to west for trees found in Texas and those running north to south for rivers in the state. The earliest structures were built of logs, but later decades saw the construction of masonry buildings in a range of fashionable architectural styles. The onset of the Civil War slowed building and development, but the city grew quickly with the end of the war. The arrival of the railroad in 1871 encouraged more development. In 1866 Castleman married Amelia E. Smith, the daughter of Alfred and Ann Smith. Their first child, Margaret, was born on April 17, 1867. Castleman set about arranging for a house for his growing family, setting his sights on land fronting on East Bois D'Arc Street, just east of St. David's Episcopal Church. In 1867 he a uired of Block 86, p ay~ f o r the 66' ~ 128' lot._ In 1868 he bou $137. , Althoug as 1873 when the construction took place.

BOIS D'ARC STREET The house Castleman built at 308 East Bois D'Arc Street was a two story rectangular structure, with a half basement below following the natural slope of the lot The walls were load bearing masonry, limestone at the basement and foundation level and brick at the two floors above. The house had elements of the Italianate style - low pitched roof, widely oved:langing eaves set on decorative brackets, tall narrow windows with arched heads and hooded trim, one story porch across the front facade - that had become popular in the United States in the years leading up to the Civil War. Introduced in Austin in several buildings constructed in the late 1850's, including the State Lunatic Asylum and the Institute for the Blind, the Italianate style was still quite popular in the 1870's. The house was symmetrical in plan, each floor having a center hall flanked by two square rooms with fireplaces in the interior walls. The room on the east end of the first floor, probably the parlor, had a large bay window in the east wall. Early, perhaps original, addition to the house was an ell-wing, constructed at the east side of the back of the house. The wing was originally one story, frame construction with a shingle roof, as shown in nineteenth century Sanborn maps of Austin. In later years, the wing was replaced with a two story, masonry addition that remains today. Early maps and photographs also show several different one story, frame construction outbuildings on the site, located on the alley, that were probably for the storage of vehicles, livestock and household goods. During the time of the planning and construction of the house, Castleman's business interests le of rize-win_ning prospered. bl9lices posted in the Dailyjitatesmau-altHted--readets. s~wing machines at Castleman's store on the avenue. His annual buying trip to New York was reported in the Local Matters column each year. The first city directory published for Austin in 1872-73 listed R. M. Castleman as a dealer in dry goods. The business was located on Congress Avenue netween Pecan and Bois D'Arc Streets, probably on the land Castleman and Smith bought from Abner Cook in 1865. In August of 1874, the Daily Statesman reported that an extension to Castleman's large store was almost complete. Business continued to grow, as evidenced by the expanding listing given for the shop in the city directories. The 1877-78 entry included "d!Y goods, clothing,_boots, etc." and the 1879-80 entry was "dry goods, c!_othing, boots, shoes, hats, caps ana gents' furnishing goods." He also gave time to civic duties and other causes. When the Texas Central Railroad demanded payment in gold instead of currency in 1872, he led a coalition of over fifty merchants in action against the policy. He was elected the First Assistant Foreman of the Washington Steam Fire Engine Company No. 1 in 1873. H~ continued to buy land in the city, sometimes in partnership with his father-in-law Alfred Smith and his brother-in-law James W. Smith. James W. Smith had attained his own position in the city, serving several terms as Mayor in the 1860's and as Chief Justice and County Judge of Travis County through the 1870's. Castleman's family also grew, but not as he might have wished. Three sons and a daughter were b9m between 1870 and 1878, but three of these children passed away at young ages. Daughter Amelia L. was born in 1872 and died in April 1875, suffering critical injuries in an accident involving fire. The newspaper reported that "friends and acquaintances of Mr. and Mrs. R. M. Castleman were pained to learn yesterday morning that their sweet little girl, whose clothes caught on fire the day before, had died during the night." Son Reburn M., born in 1874, died before he reached the age of two. Son Alfred, born in 1870 died as a young man in 1886. Only Margaret and Richard lived to be adults. <;.@stleman's wife, Amelia E., was apparentJ)' a frail woman. In July 1873, Castleman advertised for a woman to cook, wash and iron and a girl to nurse, noting that Swedes were preferred. Despite the help the family put on, Amelia was struck ill with consumption and became an invalid for several years. They sought relief in other locations, including West Texas and Colorado, but she could not recover. ~he died on Spetember 5, 1879._!t the family home. The Daily Statesman described her as theaaughter of an old and respecteo citizen of Aiisrtn, a zealous member of the Cumberland Presbyterian Church, a woman of many lovable qualities and with many devoted friends. Eight months before Amelia's death, Castleman entered into a venture that would occupy him until the end of his life. He began to acquire farm land southeast of Austin. In the early years he had a partner in the venture, but in 1887 he bought out his partner's interest in the farm and became the sole owner. The improvements on the farm included a gin and barns for livestock. !}y the early 1890's, Castleman had retired from the dry goods business he had o_p Congress Avenue. His listing in die 1893-94 city dtrectory 1s as a farmer and stock rdiser, and he kept an office in the building at 606 Congress. By 1898, his son Richard was a farmer as well, and may have assisted his father with the fann affairs. MARGARET CASfLEMAN BULL Margaret Castleman attended the B. J. Smith school for women, at the comer of West 6th and Rio Grande, and the Bickler School, at 11th and Congress. She was also active in the Ladies Aid Society of the First Cumberland Presbyterian Church, serving as the secretary for many years. Perhaps through the church or the activities of the Ladies Aid Society she met R. P. f!ull, who would become her husband in 1891. ' Richard Platt Bull was born in Mobile, Alabama in 1848. He served in the Civil War, worked for a time in Galveston in the cotton business, then went to New York City and came to Austin in about 1888. He worked as the steward and bookkeeper at the State Lunatic Asylum, at the north edge of the city, where he also lived. Iq_ 1891, he and Margaret Castleman were married and he moved to the Castleman house at 308 E. 7th Street. He w rked ~_bookkeeper-for pen en accountant. His offices were next to those of the =--- - -----'.--- - -- - -- - /)1 ~ p,,ct-- {q<;f1--01t1,-, 1- (<, P. ~Jl t , I' R. P. and Margaret Bull had five children, born between the years of 1893 and 1903, and they all lived in the house at ~08 East Ttn. In fact, the city directory for 1903-1904 lists eleven people at the house - R. M. Castleman, his daughter Margaret, husband R. P. and their five children, and his son Richard, wife Lena and their son. Sadly, the number of occupants was reduced through the death of several family members. One of R. P. and Margaret Bull's children died in infancy and Richard Castleman died in 1906 at the age of 28. His wife Lena and son moved soon afterwards. At some point between..1?00 aod 193S, the most significant architecturaJ change to the house was made. The one story frame wing at the back of the house, shown on the early Sanborn maps, was removed and replaced with a two story masonry wing. This addition provided a great deal of new space, probably needed since severaJ families occupied the house in the early twentieth century. The new addition included two rooms at the basement level. At the first floor a back hall was added, as well as a room opening to the parlor, possibly a dining room, a kitchen and pantry. At the second floor a back hall and a large room for sleeping were added. (In later years, this sleeping room was divided into three rooms, one of which was a bathroom.) A two story frame element was added at the northwest comer of the addition and the center section of the front porch was enclosed at the second story, these additions being possible storage or bath elements. During World War I, the two oldest Bull sons, A. C. (Alfred Castleman) and.Richard, left home to join the armed forces. · A. C. had completed his degree at Texas A&M College in 1916, and Richard left the college after two years of study to join the army. While both sons were away, their father was suddenly stricken with influenza on October 6, 1918, and died immediately. A newspaper article about his passing describes the incident: R. P. Bull, an old and respected citizen of Austin, died suddenly at his home, 308 East Seventh Street, at 7:15 o'clock Friday evening. He returned to his home about 6 p.m. apparently in his usual good health expressing no feelings of approaching illness to anyone and when at 7 o'clock the evening meal was announced he went to the table and was in the midst of the meal when at 7:15 he became faint and began to gasp for breath with a suddenness characteristic of heart failure. Members of the family rushed to Mr. Bull's assistance and the family physician immediately summoned, but the sufferer passed away before the physician amved. Thirteen days later, his son Richard died at home followin~ an attack of Spanish influenza and pneumonia. He had returned from army radio school m Virginia the week before to visit his family and was already sick at the time of his arrival. The famil continued to live in the house at 308 E. 7th Street The city directory for 1920 I ts five occupants: Castleman Bull, recently widowed, and her three remaining children: A. C., listed as a farmer, Margaret A., listed as a student at the University of Texas and Howard, the youngest child. . ast eman, w o was approac e age of 84, Margaret . On May 7, 1920, Major R. M. Castleman died and the house passed to Margaret Castleman Bull, his only surviving child. Mrs. Bull and her children continued to live at the house, even as the children became adults. In 1922, A. C. Bull became a partner in the general insurance firm of Bull & Deviney. He married Edna Hazlewood in 1924 and moved out of the family home. He later worked as a bank executive and was the chairman of the board of the American National Bank. Howard Bull was a student at the University of Texas in 1922, but continued to live at the house, even after he married. He joined his brother in the insurance business in 1932. Young Margaret joined her mother in charity activities and church work. Mrs. Bull was the president of the Senior Helping Hand for many years and Margaret was the president of the Junior Helping Hand; both were involved with the Children's Home run by the organization. MARGAREf BULL MOORE Mrs. Bull died on June 27, 1934, and the home eventually passed to her daughter Margaret. Within a few years of her mother's death, Margaret married Herschel T. Moore, a man about three years older than she. Moore was a deputy collector with the Internal Revenue Service, living in a rooming house in downtown Austin in 1935. How the two met is uncertain, but it may have had something to do with the rooming house. It was the same location Margaret's cousin had lived in while attending classes at the University of Texas 12 years earlier. The Moores left Austin after their marriage, and the only occupants of the house at 308 E. 7th were Howard Bull and his wife. However, Herschel Moore died in late 1940 and Margaret Moore and her son, Herschel, Jr., returned to Austin soon after. The city directory for 1942 lists Margaret Moore as the homeowner and Herschel Moore, Jr. as a resident of 308 E. 7th. Howard Bull and his wife moved to a home on Preston A venue. By the time Mrs. Moore returned to the house, the transformation from nineteenth century residential district to modem day commercial area had begun. Several houses across the alley were converted to apartments, and a large house on the block was removed. Although the entire neighborhood was changing, St. David's Episcopal Church was a direct force of change on this block. The church had acquired the house between it and Mrs. Moore's house and replaced it with a Sunday school building, which appears on the 1935 Sanborn map of the block. The church needed more space and expansion room and began to inquire about the availability of adjacent property in 1946. The rector, Rev. Sumners, approached Mrs. Moore about the possibility of selling the house to the church. She replied that she could not sell at that time. She noted: I am sure it would be wise, from a business standpoint, to sell my home and get further out into the residential district, but my heart tells me that I could never be really happy any where else exrept in this old house that holds so many happy associations and memories and which has sheltered four generations of our family. Rev. Sumners then approached the owner of the property at 307 E. 8th Street, who also would not sell. By 1954, the church succeeded in acquiring the property at 305 E. 8th Street and converted the house to educational and nursery use. By the early 1960's, the question of a plan for the future of St. David's was again under consideration. The church had identified new classroom and fellowship space and an enlarged sanctuary as critical issues for their future. They began to work: with Brooks & Barr Architects to develop a master plan for future use and development of the church. The church needed more land and tried to acquire the northwest comer of the block, two cleared residential lots in use as surface parking. They were unable to persuade the owner to sell on terms they could agree to and were running out of options. Almost in desperation, they approached Mrs. Moore and her brothers in April 1963 about the house at 308 E. 7th. A. C. and Howard Bull both favored the proposal, out of concern for their sister's future and safety in the changing neighborllood. Mrs. Moore, however, still did not want to sell the house. Apparently, her brothers counseled her and she decided to sell the next month. They quickly completed the negotiations, although Mrs. Moore would not budge from her original asking price of $150,000 for her three lots and house. The Vestry considered the cost and found it fair, since they had been prepared to pay $125,000 for the two lots of the parking area they bad set out to buy. Mrs. Moore moved out in September 1963, and the house that was home to four generations of the Castleman/BulVMoore family passed to its new owner. ST. DAVID'S EPISCOPAL CHURCH When St. David's bought the house, the added land and building relieved critical crowding for both the immediate and the long term. The land, located east of the church, allowed the building committee to complete a master plan and construction work for a substantial addition to the east of the sanctuary. The new parish building, Sumners Hall, remains in use today. Later, the Edens Center was constructed on land that was originally part of Lots 5 and 6 of Block 86, owned by R. M. Castleman a hundred years earlier. The house itself was put to use immediately. It was renovated in the first phase of the 1960's era expansion, and used as transitional space for offices displaced by the construction work. In preparation for this, the basement level was remodeled by the addition of a concrete floor and new ceiling. A three level addition was made at the northwest comer of the-house to provide restrooms at each level.. New kitchen equipment was installed for use by the church school. The house was named Fontaine House in 1965 at ~e suggestion of Rev. Sumners, who felt it would be a fitting tribute to the founding Rector" Edward Fontaine. By 1966, the construction of the new parish hall was complete and Fontaine House was used as church school and youth group space on Sundays. There was a desire to put the house to use during the week and when the possibility of a federally funded daycare facility in the house was proposed in 1968, the Vestry approved. The entire basement level was used by the daycare, as well as a classroom on the first floor of the parish hall. The yard on the east side of Fontaine House was fenced for use as an outdoor play area. Minor improvements were made in the house for the new tenant, including installation of additional kitchen equipment, space heaters, new stair carpet and window repairs. The following year, Caritas approached St. David's about space for their organization. Caritas was founded six years earlier. They would soon have to vacate their space on Brazos Street. The Vestry approved the use of the first floor of Fontaine House by Caritas, which allowed for the church to use the rooms on Sunday for classes. Air conditioning was installed in the house, both for Caritas and for the church school. In 1971, Caritas converted a second floor storage room into a small dental examining room as part of a dental referral service they operated in the house. In later years, the daycare center moved out of the building, Caritas took over their space in the basement. Caritas still occupies the basement and first floors of Fontaine House. St. David's church offices are on the second floor. The southeast comer room on the second floor is used by a youth group as a classroom. LANDMARK STATUS OF FONTAINE HOUSE The Fontaine House is not a designated historic structure at either the city, state or national level. The St David's sanctuary building was designated and zoned as a historic building by the City of Austin in 1976, but the designation applies only to the sanctuary and Lots 1 and 2 of the block. A church became a Recorded Texas Historic Landmark in 1966, but the designation applies to the sanctuary building only. The church was entered in the National Register of Historic Places in 1978. Although the extent is somewhat vague, Fontaine House is mentioned in only one sentence of the nomination text and the designation seems to apply only to the sanctuary building itself. The house is listed in historic building inventories and research files maintained by the Austin History Center of the Austin Public Library and by the Austin Heritage Foundation of the ~erita;: Society of Austin. These entities have no regulato!)' au!hori!,Y over the use and d1Spos1t1on of the structures they have catalogued. They exist pnmanly as resources and repositories of infonnation about the cultural and built heritage of the city. As an artifact, the house is remarkably intact, having been protected and preserved by the four generations of the original builder's family who continuously occupied the house for almost one hundred years. The historic porch, interior doors, windows, millwork, trim and fireplaces are, for the most part, intact. When the church acquired the house, they were able to use the building almost as it was, without major modification of the interior or the principal facades. The most extreme changes, which were the f arish hall and youth building additions constructed next to the house, occurred at the back o the building. The changes made to the interior of the building are largely reversible. Floor coverings and dropped ceilings can be easily removed to reveal the historic elements below or above. New partition walls are not of permanent construction and can be easily removed to reveal the historic spaces. In evaluating the significance of historic properties for eligibility for landmark designation, a range of criteria are considered. Properties nominated to the National Register are evaluated for significance at a national, state or local level in terms of one or more of four criteria. , Eligible properties: • • • are associated with historical events. are associated with the lives of significant people in our past. embody the distinctive characteristics of a type, period or method of construction, or represent the work of a master. · • have or may be likely to yield archaeological information important in prehistory and/or history. In order to be designated to the Register, properties must also by at least 50 years old and must have maintained their historical integrity in terms of location, design, setting, materials, workmanship, feeling and association. Pro~erties considered for Landmark designation by the City of Austin are evaluated using simtlar criteria, as well as a few points that allow a broader interpretation. Included are consideration of: character, interest or value as part of the development, heritage or cultural characteristics of the city, state or country. embodiment of elements of architectural design, detail, materials or craftsmanship which represent a significant architectural innovation. relationship to other distinctive buildings, sites or areas which are eligible for preservation according to a plan based on architectural, historic or cultural motif. • portrayal of the environment of a group of people in an area of history characterized by a distinctive architectural style. exemplification of the cultural, economic, social, ethnic or historical heritage of the city, state or country. a building that because of its location has become of value to a neighborhood, community, area or the city. • • • • • value as an aspect of community sentiment or public pride. In considering the significance of Fontaine House, several of the above criteria are applicable. The individuals and families who built and occupied the house were prominent citizens of the city, and their story is an interesting one. The house is an example of a popular style of residential architecture and represents a building type. The building as a surviving example of nineteenth century, residential downtown Austin is also of significance. On all of these bases the Fontaine House would be eligible for historic designation at the local, state and national levels. SELECTED BIBLIOGRAPHY Austin American, Austin, Texas.
