Carrollton, GA : My grand parents home in Roanoke, VA was designed by GTP, it is a mirror design of the one on your site which is down the street at 1144 2nd Street. My great Grandfather Christopher Markley purchased 1112 2nd Street and is one of the builders that built some of GTP's designs, his office building in Roanoke is also on your page.
My Aunt Judith Webster Markley Baumgardner who still lives in Roanoke has done a good bit of research on GTP and his buildings.

“Norton Arms” – image in BDW 01/1891
from Norton, VA, website: http://www.nortonva.org/1st_page.html
The first U. S. Post Office was established in 1883 and named Eolia; but this was changed in 1890 to Norton to honor Mr. Eckstein Norton, President of the Louisville and Nashville Railroad. It was during this boom period that Norton was connected to the industrialized east coast by steel ties of the Norfolk and Western Railroad. In 1889, the Norfolk and Western Railway Company dispatched five men to lay out a town.
“N&W President Fredrick J. Kimball and his entourage of guests arrive by special coach from Philadelphia to sign the white, waiting pages of the tavern’s guest book and to join in opening-day festivities at the 25-room hostelry.”

“memorial to Harry Wilcocks McCall”
SM: “book on St. Luke’s: in Oct. 1894, Mrs. Harry W. McCall communicated her desire to erect in memory of Mr. McCall, a home for girls – the request was granted and it became St. Margaret’s House. Cornerstone laid July 20, 1896, and it was opened on Oct 31, 1896. In the vestibule is a tablet bearing the inscription: “......Memorial of Harry Wilcocks McCall, rector’s warden of St. Luke’s Church who entered into life 18 June 1894.” Pearson’s name is not mentioned for that project – the building or the tablet, but this must be it.”
