This neo-classical residence serves as a reminder of the historic significance of
Edward Galt and Wirt Franklin, were cofounders of the first petroleum company to buy leases and drill wells in the Healdton Oil Field – one of Oklahoma’s richest petroleum discoveries. The private foundation that currently owns the property has no preservation plans for the vacant property.
