The Charles Miller-Hays home located at 302 5th. Street was built by Charles Miller, a merchant, land broker/banker, in 1905
      The stone structure is truly the largest stone home in Ballinger. Much of the stone used in the house was quarried by an immigrant stone mason and his wife, while digging the huge basement of the home. The Charles Miller Jr. family lived in the home for many years. The house was sold to Robert Lee in 1955. Hestwood Clayton, a rancher, bought the home in the 1960'5. Extensive changes were made on the interior.
       The home is now owned by Ann Hays.
