The city's oldest existing structure was first built about five miles south
of town on the four-section claim of W.H. Seastrunk in 1907. Lumber was brought
in to Pecos and freighted to Kermit from Monahans. In 1910, Seastrunk dismantled
his house and moved it into town. Seastrunk sold the property, and the house
remained in the W.E. Baird family until 1967 when it was presented to the city.
It is furnished with period pieces. Open 9 a.m.–4 p.m. weekdays and 3–5 p.m.
Sun. In Pioneer Park on the north side of Winkler County Park.
