Family History

Harry C. and Paula Weible had this house built for their family in 1904 and loved here until their deaths, both in 1940. Harry made his fortune in oil and gas. The couple lived here with their young adult children, Fern and Muerl. In fact, Fern’s 1910 wedding was held in this house, which was “handsomely decorated”  throughout. Church and club events were often hosted by Paula in the home, too. In 1914, several Coffeyville residents were adding sleeping porches to their house. While the Weibles did not follow the fad, according to the Coffeyville Weekly Journal, they did make substantial improvements to the home that year.

Nice backyard with plenty of space. To the south of the house is a large church parking lot. Love the front porch that expands across the front of the house. It’s not a perfect house but has the high money items already done. You can finish the inside touches. Dual purpose for several of the rooms so you can use as bedrooms or living space. We are calling it a 4 bedroom but you decide on how to use the rooms.
