G. A. Nichols built this Italiante red brick home in 1925 for John & Minnie Dysart Teter. The home is distinguished by a tiled roof, arched windows, and wide extended eaves.

John Teter was born in 1878 on the plains of Kansas. His parents moved to Oklahoma Territory in 1889, and John grew up on the rolling plains of Payne County. In Stillwater, while attending Oklahoma A&M, he met Minnie Dysart, a graduate of the third class at A&M. After he completed business school in Kansas, they were married in 1902 and moved to Glencoe where he got his first job at a bank.

Following banking jobs in Pawnee and Bristow, John moved to Oklahoma City to become vice president of the First National Bank. When the institution merged with the American National Bank in 1917, he remained as a vice President for his good friend, Hugh Johnson, and his brother, Frank Johnson.

John and Minnie had a daughter, Glennes, who was born April 6, 1918. John died in 1935 at age 57. Glennes attended Randolph-Macon College where she received degrees in Mathematics and Chemistry and a minor in Biology. After graduating she worked at Randolph-Macon as an assistant in the Chemistry Department. In 1943, Glennes married Harold H. Clifford, Jr., a native of Oregon who completed his law degree at OU after the war. They had two sons, Harold H. Clifford, III, and John Teter Clifford, and a daughter, Carolyn. After her husband died in 1970, Glennes and daughter, Carolyn, returned to the home on 15th to care for her mother, Minnie.

This home was featured on the Heritage Hills Home Tour in 1974.
