The LeGrand Morse House, at 365 Main St. in Point Arena in Mendocino County, California was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.
The house, surrounded by a picket fence, is in a residential area north of the town's commercial center.
Its National Register nomination provides this interesting explanation of its importance:This house is associated with one of Point Arena's founding families and is the only building directly linked with one of its early leading citizens.
Le Grand Morse had a career of increasing prominence, beginning as a teacher and store clerk, moving into the sales of drugs and general merchandise, and finally becoming a lawyer and state legislator.
The house shows that leading citizens of Point Arena did not require pretentious dwellings.
