The Senter-Rooks House, also known as Twin Oaks, is a historic house in Humboldt, Tennessee, U.S.. It was the residence of a former mayor of Humboldt. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

History

The house was built in 1860-1866 for J. N. Lanom.[2] A year after the end of the American Civil War of 1861-1865, in 1866, the house was purchased by Moses E. Senter, who served as Humboldt's mayor from 1866 to 1869.[2] Senter was also the pastor of the First Baptist Church of Humbold until he became a Freemason in 1873.[2]

The house was purchased by Charles Wesley Rooks, a newspaper publisher and state senator, in 1917.[2] He served as the president of the Savings and Loan Association of Humboldt from 1938 to 1946.[2] He lived in the house with his wife, Kate Senter, who was Moses E. Senter's granddaughter.[2] It was owned by their daughter, Bessie Rooks Fitzgerald, from 1946 to 1976, when it was purchased by their grandson, Dr. Charles Couch.[2]

Architectural significance

The house was designed in the Neo-Classical architectural style.[2] It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since July 9, 1980.[1]
