It was built in 1910. Martha T. Cannon, a widow of George Q, Cannon, owned and lived in this home. Cannon was born in 18^6 in St. Louis. Her parents, Lewis Telle and Armelia Rogers Telle, died when she was young and she was raised by her aunt, Mrs. George Beeke. When the family joined the LDS Church she came to Utah with them. She returned to Iowa with the family and attended college. In 1866 she went to Utah without her family and she taught school until her marriage to President George A. Cannon in 1868. She was the 4th of his six wives. Martha lived in this house until 1917. Her son, Lewis Telle Cannon, an architect, then lived here for one year. Martha moved to 313 3rd where she continued to live until her death in 1928.(This was the home of her daughter Grace who had married C. Clarence Neslen, then mayor of Salt Lake City, and the grandson of Samuel Neslen who lived at 72 E.) The house was then maintained as rental. The house was converted into apartments in 1925.
