Mary Schuh, a longtime pioneer homesteader and reputedly the first white woman to settle locally in nearby Cable, owned the property in 1894. The home was built in the mid-1890s. Mary’s daughter and son-in-law, Emma and Frank Nowak, raised their children here and sold the home shortly after Mary’s death in 1918. New cedar roof shingling of the original type and restoration of the unusual handcut metal ridge trim atop the roof return this charming home to its nineteenth-century likeness.","sponsor":null,"accessinfo":"Private","lede":"","website":"","related_resources":["<a href=\"https://npgallery.nps.gov/NRHP/GetAsset/6d67f5f6-60b5-43ca-81d2-c1ca4972ee02\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Read about the Philipsburg Historic District</a>","<a href=\"https://npgallery.nps.gov/NRHP/GetAsset/df9ccd24-a7c0-4ecc-9c6b-ea13416853f0/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">See photos of the Philipsburg Historic District</a>"],"factoids":[],"files":{"https://mail.historicmt.org/files/fullsize/a10cb30c6d25160fdc87318bbf8f0294.jpg":{"id":1078,"mime-type":"image/jpeg","title":"Schuh-Nowak Residence","description":"Schuh-Nowak Residence, facing west on Franklin Street, front view of the residence, digital photograph. | Montana Historical Society | June 2019 | Michael Connolly","thumbnail":"https://mail.historicmt.org/files/square_thumbnails/a10cb30c6d25160fdc87318bbf8f0294.jpg"},"https://mail.historicmt.org/files/fullsize/0d32d59933447fb264a850495c6c87f3.jpg":{"id":1079,"mime-type":"image/jpeg","title":"Schuh-Nowak Residence","description":"Schuh-Nowak Residence, facing northwest on Franklin Street, side view of the building, digital photograph. | Montana Historical Society | June 2019 | Michael Connolly","thumbnail":"https://mail.historicmt.org/files/square_thumbnails/0d32d59933447fb264a850495c6c87f3.jpg"},"https://mail.historicmt.org/files/fullsize/d46d5111a697f36ac53d4486534dc6cf.jpg":{"id":3483,"mime-type":"image/jpeg","title":"Schuh-Nowak Residence","description":"Schuh-Nowak Residence.
