Charlie E. (1892-1973) and Berniece (1898-1979) Jones hired J. A. Bevill to build their Craftsman style home. Charlie was born in Chico, Texas, was a WW I veteran, and returned to Denton to marry Berniece. He owned Jones Cleaners while maintaining his farm and ranch. The couple sold the house in 1940 to Mr. and Mrs. Curtis Savage, who moved from Lewisville to Denton to be closer to his work at the Denton Mill and Elevator Company and to his brother Ed Savage who worked at Denton County National Bank. This house is similar to other craftsman cottages in the district but lacks the common precise façade symmetry.
