    Byron O. House 1957-1969 © Illinois Supreme Court Historic Preservation Commission Image courtesy of the Illinois Supreme Court Byron O. House was born on September 27, 1902, in St. Louis, Missouri, to Harold H. and Olive B. House. In 1904, the family moved to Oakdale, Illinois, about nine miles south of Nashville, then in 1906 moved to Ashley, about ten miles east of Nashville. Upon moving in 1908 to Nashville, about sixty miles southeast of St. Louis, House attended local public schools. He enrolled in the University of Illinois in 1921 and studied pre-law courses. He received a Bachelor of Laws degree from the law school there in 1926. That same year he was admitted to the bar in 1926 and returned to Nashville where he was to live the rest of his life.1 Before settling in Nashville, his father, familiarly called H.H., worked in railroad yards, and on street car lines while he attended Benton Law School in St. Louis. In Ashley, he worked as a school teacher and farm laborer. In Oakdale, he worked as a freight clerk for the Illinois Central railroad as he prepared for his bar examination. When he was admitted to the bar in 1908, he moved immediately to Nashville where he set up a law practice. His descendants still practice law in Nashville.2 Byron House practiced law with his father until the latter died in 1944. His new partner became Wilbert J. Hohlt, although the firm retained the name House & House. Eventually his 2 son, James B. House, joined the firm in 1955, and the firm Hohlt, House, DeMoss & Epplin still serves the community.3 House’s family in Nashville included his parents, an older sister, Florence, and a younger sister, Beulah.
