Morgan in Cuero, De Witt County, Texas, originally built in Indianola and dismantled and rebuilt in Cuero in 1886-87 by Peter W. Clement.","why_significant":"The house is considered architecturally significant for its Greek Revival detailing, including porch supports with molded caps and slightly pedimented window surrounds. It is also tied to commerce through Henry Nagel, who owned it from 1912 through the 1930s and ran the J.R. Nagel Hardware Store, one of Cuero's first and most important businesses. The reviewer noted it as one of Cuero's most unusual 19th century houses despite alterations.","narrative":"This two-story frame house at 701 E. Morgan in Cuero was first built in Indianola, then dismantled and rebuilt in Cuero in 1886-87 by Peter W. Clement. It has a hip roof with composition shingles, six-over-six wood double-hung windows, a single-door entrance with transom and sidelights, and an L-shaped two-story porch on the north and east sides. Box columns with molded caps and a battered balustrade define the porch, and a foundation skirt wall was added in the 1920s. Clement owned the house until 1912, when Henry Nagel acquired it. Nagel operated the J.R. Nagel Hardware Store at 113-15 E. Main Street, regarded as one of Cuero's first and most important businesses, and kept the house through the 1930s. The property was recognized for its Greek Revival character, seen in the molded porch capitals and slightly pedimented window surrounds, and for its link to local commerce. It remains a residence in good condition.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":"Unknown; rebuilt in Cuero by Peter W.
