" Garrett/Bender Home "

Otillie Thursnelda "Nellie" Bender was a Hermann who had come with her father, Dr. Henry Hermann and the Baltimore colony to Coos County in 1859. She, and her son Dr. Chester L. Bender, lived in the home. It was built in 1900.

Roy and Rose Garrett later purchased the home. After Roy's death, Rose lived in the house until at least 1940.
