About 1900, J. E. and Nettie (Bell) Millhollon trailed their cattle from Glasscock to Martin County, where they acquired this homesite and 34 sections of land. As business and church leaders in Stanton, they had this house erected in 1907 by N. H. Hunt of Big Spring, who built many structures along the Texas & Pacific Railroad. Restoration began in 1970 under Mr. and Mrs. Norman Wright, who bought the property in 1974.
