This cottage at 317 A Street, Kerrville, features decorative shingles of a type more typical of a folk Victorian. However, this house actually dates to 1923.

This was the home of Paschal L. "Pack" and Helen White. They were the first tenants and lived here many years.
In January 1953, White retired from the VA Hospital after 33 years of service (the first few years in Houston).    He came to work in Kerrville in 1923.  White died in Kerrville in 1967 and is buried at Glen Rest Cemetery. His widow, who survived until 1992, is buried beside him.

Today this is a commercial property.
