As merchants, Henry & Maybelle Amberg lived in prominent homes, now recognized on the National Register of Historic Places.
The Amberg House on Carroll Street was built ca. 1860 with Italianate detailing and retains much of its original character (FUH-5). The Amberg House on Wellington Street (FUH-73) is a ca. 1870 central passage plan frame residence with a Greek Revival influenced entrance and original doors and windows.
From the 1880s to 1900, the most prominent residential areas of Hickman were along Carroll Street, Moulton Street, and Troy Avenue. Carroll Street was located midway up the bluff and above potential flood areas. Moulton Street was the major east west street on top of the bluff.
