The three story wood frame building was built by August R. Meyer and became the First Methodist Episcopal Church parsonage, then the home of Patrick A. and Ellen Healy Kelly who transferred ownership to her brother, Daniel Healy. Later, his cousin Nellie occupied the house and then donated it to the Leadville Historical Association. It was restored by the National Youth Administration in 1938 and was presented to the State Historical Society in 1947.Physical Description1 photonegative ; 6 x 6 cm (2 1/2 x 2 1/2 in.); 1 photoprint ; 15 x 12 cm (6 x 4 1/4 in.)Born-Digital or AnalogAnalogSubjectLeadville (Colo.)InteriorsToysHealy House State Museum.Geographic AreaLeadville (Colo.)CollectionPhotographs - Western HistoryRelated MaterialImage File: ZZR710000288Type of MaterialFilm negativesPhotographic printsOriginal Material Found in CollectionWH1204.
