The Mullendore Mansion, in Cleveland, Oklahoma, built in 1910, is both historically and architecturally significant because of its historic association with E. C. Mullendore, one of the most influential ranchers, bankers, and petroleum operators in north central Oklahoma, and because it is one of the best remaining examples of Greek Revival architecture applied to a country dwelling in north-central Oklahoma. Its overall dimensions are approximately 35' x 55'.[2]

Occupation

After Mullendore's death in 1938, the residence was inherited by Bessie Mullendore Johnson, one of E. C.'s daughters. The Johnsons resided in the house until 1949 and then it stood vacant for fifteen years. In 1964 the nominated property was purchased by L. A. Davis, who occupied the house as of 1984.
