A History: Springdell Is a Family Place

Springdell attracts families. It has always been so. If children are raised here, they come back, looking for the belonging.

George Howe was one of the eleven original owners of Springdell. He signed the Articles of Incorporation September 4,1904. His property is the second house in plat A. At the time I am copying his history (2002), his property is owned by Winston Lee. For many years, George Howe’s daughter-in-law, Marie (wife of Royal), lived in the home followed by the Chuck Tandy, and then the Bartlett families. Winston Lee and his wife Geni, the present owners, have added a new second story wing to the house.
