A fire raced through a log home off of Old Houston Road Monday evening, destroying the approximately 120-year-old home. Family members who live on the property state that the log structure has been in their family for at least 54 years. The home was well over 50 years old when they acquired the log home in the early 1960s. The log home has been vacant in recent years but still contained family heirlooms. Family members also state that the home was most likely built from logs harvested from local Montgomery County pine forests, possibly from their own land. The family had recently contacted Texas A and M University, seeking help in restoring the old log home. The family dates the log home to between 110 years and 120 years old.
