Built as servants' quarters about 1872, this "Shotgun" house stood at 604 San Antonio near the home of Charles S. West (1829-1885), lawyer and Texas Supreme Court Justice.  In 1885 banker Eugene Bremond (1832-1910) acquired it.  Emma Grant West (1865-1952), whose husband Robert died in 1904, bought the cottage in 1906 and moved it here for rent property.  She sold it in 1925 to a teacher, Miss Katie Gannaway (1890-1967).  It was purchased in 1973 and restored by attorney Byron Lockhart.
