History of The Inn And It's Rooms
This colonial revival house was built in 1922 for Mr. John Sims, president of The Normal School, which is now the University of Wisconsin, Stevens Point. This was the new white wood sided house of the president located across the street from Normal School's main building. Some time in the 1940's, the house was sold to Mr. & Mrs. Weldon Leahy. Mr. Leahy was the prominent president of the Journal Printing Company and publisher of the Stevens Point Journal newspaper. In the early 1950's, Mr. Leahy contracted Helge Carlson, Ellis Stone Company, to apply lannon stone over the wood siding. This was one of the last jobs that Mr. Carlson did for Ellis Stone Company. Alyce Mae Martin, Kathy's grandmother, was married to Guy Martin. Guy's grandfather, Hiram, and his uncle, Jesse, were instrumental figures in the beginnings of Stevens Point along with the founding father, George Stevens. It is that history that inspired the Alyce Mae Martin guest room.
