The Ratliff Home. at 2915 19th St., is made of handcut stone and was completed in 1949 for Carl E. and Juanita Ratliff.
Carl Ratliff was an early-day Lubbock civic leader and county attorney for Hockley County and a longtime member of the state Bar. Mrs. Ratliff was a pioneer music teacher.
Using a cup, saucer and ruler for drafting tools, and enlisting the skills of a Fort Worth architect to design the roof, Mrs. Ratliff created the home for her growing family.
