The
Jim Wells County Courthouse c. 1912:
The first and only courthouse they ever had. Built by Atlee Ayers in the Texas
Renaissance style.
For a time, the San
Antonio architect designed courthouses exclusively. Refugio,
Kingsville and Brownsville
all have Ayers
courthouses.
Photographer's Note:
"Large additions
to either side in 1948 changed the appearance of the building and destroyed some
of its original features." - Terry
