     Erected 1883-1884 by George Meriwether, landowner. Has square nails, pine walls and floors. The residence, in Spanish provincial style, was one of the first two-story homes built in Edna. The original layout included a separate kitchen and servants' quarters. The 22-room house is still called The Mott because it is set among many live oaks. Purchased 1907 by E. P. Simons; willed 1946 to his daughters. Recorded Texas Historic Landmark, 1968.
