The home was a turn of the century home built in the early 1900's. It consists of a living room, a family room, dining room, kitchen, bathroom, master bedroom and a spare bedroom on the main floor. The home has a 3^rd bedroom located in the attic. At one time a stairway led from the closet of the spare room on the main floor to the bedroom in the attic, but former homeowners sealed off this access point. The home also has a full basement which is divided into several sectioned areas.

St. Joseph was established in 1843 and remained relatively small until the discovery of gold in California in 1848. St. Joseph became the starting point for the journey west as hundreds of thousands of settlers arrived by steamboat and hundreds of wagon trains lines the streets waiting to be ferried across the Missouri River. Their need to purchase oxen, covered wagons and supplies helped establish the economic foundation of the city.

The railroad reached St. Joseph in 1858 which assured its continued growth because of it's accessibility by land, water and rail.

Political tension leading up to the Civil War led to the establishment of the Pony Express in 1860 and 1861 and St. Joseph became the eastern terminus. Loyalties were divided during the war which brought violence to the region but the recovery of the city was rapid.

By the 1870's, St Joseph became the wholesale center for the building of the West and during the prosperity of the 1880' and 1890's many beautiful mansions could be found lining the streets. Many of those mansions still exist today.

Growth continued throughout the 1900's and today St Joseph is the 6^th largest city in the state of Missouri.
