The MunroeâDunlapâSnow House in Macon, Georgia is a small house that was built in about 1857. It appears originally to have been a five-room Victorian cottage. [2] It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places individually as well as by serving as a contributing building in the Macon Historic District.
It was built for Nathaniel Campbell Munroe who was prominent in Macon in various ways: as secretary of the Board of Health and of the Macon Lyceum and Library Society, as a director of the Macon and Western Railroad and of the Macon Manufacturing Company, as a warden of Christ Church, as "a great contributor to the cause of the Confederacy". He owned the house until 1862. [2]
A later owner was Captain Samuel S. Dunlap, leader of the Bibb County Cavalry. Peter J. Bracken, engineer of The Texas in the Great Locomotive Chase died in the house. [2]
