Modest homes like this pyramidal-roofed cottage with its characteristic square plan and attached front porch attest to a growing blue-collar population. Originally owned by county poor farm foreman Gordon H. Tracy, Hannah McClain acquired the title in 1906. Hannah’s husband, J. P. McClain, was with the U.S. Cavalry in Dakota Territory, became Montana Sate Commander of the Grand Army of the Republic, and later was a partner of C. P. Higgins in the cattle business. Other early owners included a carpenter, a mechanic, a baker, and a bookbinder.","sponsor":null,"accessinfo":"Private","lede":"","website":"","related_resources":["<a href=\"https://npgallery.nps.gov/NRHP/GetAsset/a15113cd-32cb-4b47-8f54-77b2b3501f4b\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Read about the Missoula Southside Historic District</a>","<a href=\"https://npgallery.nps.gov/NRHP/GetAsset/111d2a99-402f-4e7c-8cd3-d01ab92887d1/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">See photos of the Missoula Southside Historic District</a>"],"factoids":[],"files":{"https://mail.historicmt.org/files/fullsize/b35fd4b8742a12a53b585af481a67c94.jpg":{"id":3163,"mime-type":"image/jpeg","title":"Tracy House","description":"Tracy House.
