Built about 1855, this house was the home of the John Morrow family and originally stood on Cove Creek 9 miles south of here. On the night before the battle of Prairie Grove, Confederate General T.C. Hindman met with his division and brigade commanders in the house and made final plans for battle. The army left the Morrow farm for Prairie Grove at 4 o'clock on the morning of December 7, 1862. The house also sheltered General Sterling Price in February 1862 when Price's army was enroute to the battle of Pea Ridge.
