This home was constructed for W. J. Bullock in 1893. A number of years later it was sold to H. B. Kelley, who ran the cannery a block to the west. The south portion of the house was once a carriage house. Mr. Kelley died in 1903, but the house stayed in the family until the death of his daughters, Dr. Ruth C. Perrow, who returned to Waverly a few years before her death in 1978 and Rachel Kelley who died in 1984. The house was torn down sometime around 2012 and replaced with a metal building that sits to the south of 903 W, Bremer.
