A.W. Perry Homestead Museum

Offering a look back in time, the A.W. Perry Homestead Museum highlights what life was like in north central Texas at the turn of the 20th century. A.W. and Sarah Perry relocated to Carrollton in 1844. They claimed 640 acres and constructed a home on the property in the late 1850s. Their son and daughter-in-law tore the home down in 1909 and used some of the lumber to build the house that still stands today. In fact, the museum is always looking for docents and tour guides. They also help with group tours, scheduled school visits, and special events. Research and other opportunities may also be available.
