This home remained on Ft. Sam until after WWII. When the war was over, It was then sold by the U.S. government to a family of farmers in the 1950's and moved from the Army base to Stonewall, TX in this exact spot. The family who purchased it also built a small liquor store on the property called "Nettie's Package Store" where they sold beverages, supplies, wine and liquor to local farmers for many years!
