Truitt Log Cabin Restoration

The Truitt log cabin is important to the Republic of Texas. It is a remainder and reminder of the founders of the republic, and the history of Red River and Morris Counties, a history in which John Wingate Truitt and his descendants are a part.

For the past several years, family members have been planning and preparing to undertake the restoration of the Truitt homestead as well as getting it listed on the National Registry of Historic buildings.

Updated information on the restoration project can be found in the News section.
