==History==
Allan Shivers was the 37th Governor of Texas, serving in that position 1948–1957. Prior to that, he was Lieutenant Governor of Texas and also served 12 years in the Texas State Senate. Although he was born in Lufkin, the Shivers family owned a home near Woodville. He lived in Woodville until his high school years when the Shivers family moved to Port Arthur. Governor Shivers was married to Marialice Shary (Shivers) from Mission. The couple had four children.
The two-story Victorian style library and museum dates back to 1881 and its original resident by the name of Robert A. Cruse. Governor and Mrs. Shivers purchased the home in 1963, moving it to its current location. Interior designer Melanie Kahane, who had designed the interiors for a number of theatres in New York, was hired to help convert the residence into a museum to house historical records and memorabilia of the couple's personal and public lives. A part of the house was reserved for a local library.
