This house was the home of two distinguished Governors of Georgia — father and son.

Eugene Talmadge, b. Sept. 23, 1884 in Monroe Co. served as Chief Executive 1933-37, 1941-43, and was elected for a fourth term, 1947-51, but died in Dec. 1946 before inauguration.

Herman Eugene Talmadge, b. on Aug. 9, 1913 on this site, was elected Governor by legislature and served Jan. 14 to Mar. 18, 1947. He was later elected by the people to serve the last two years of his father's term, Nov. 17, 1948 to Jan 1, 1951, then overwhelmingly re-elected to full term 1951-53.
