The Frances Walker House, located on Joe White Street, is home to the Thomaston-Upson County African American Museum. Originally situated on King’s Avenue, the house was relocated to preserve its historical significance.
Frances Walker, a laundress known for her meticulous care of her home, lived in this shotgun-style house for 70 years with her husband and son in the Bethel Street Community. The home was selected for the museum because of its exceptional condition, a testament to Walker’s dedication and pride in her residence.
