The McDaniel-Tichenor House, located in Monroe, Georgia, United States was built in 1887[2] for retiring Governor Henry McDaniel.
Originally designed by Athens, Georgia architect William Winstead Thomas (1848-1904) in the then-popular Victorian Italianate Villa style, the house was extensively remodeled in the 1930s[3] by Nashville architect, and son-in-law of Edgar and Gipsy Tichenor,[4] Francis Boddie Warfield.
Remade in the Neoclassical style popular with prominent southerners at the time, the Tichenors also added modern indoor plumbing, electricity and heating systems.
Many original pieces, such as the Governor's carved mahogany bed, were rescued from storage in the servants house and restored by Emily Tichenor.
[5] The 1930 renovation, which changed the house from its original 1887 Italianate style to Neo-Classical style, was designed by Francis Boddie Warfield (1891-1975), who was a well-known Nashville architect and was the grandson-in-law of Governor McDaniel and was son-in-law of the incoming Tichenors.
