221 S. Tracy
Like 217 S. Tracy next door, this house was apparently built by
Nelson Catlin, a carpenter from Minnesota who settled in Bozeman
in 1872. According to Sanborn Maps, the house was built in 1890,
with a wrap-around porch like the present one, which is probably
original . By 1906, Thomas H. Rea, proprietor of the Thomas H. Rea
& Co. Grocery Store located in the building still standing at 11 E
Main, resided here. By 1927 Frances McClure was the occupant.
The house is very well preserved and is especially significant due
to its prominent corner lot.
