Notes
  • Significance: Mormon Thomas Perry settled this homestead in 1911. The property was sold to Wallace Moulton and then to Ida Chambers (ca. 1945). Ida's son, Roy Chambers, used the property as the headquarters of the family's ranching operation, which included the former Andy Chambers Homestead (adjacent on the north), and the Eggleston Homestead (adjacent on the east). Following the expansion of Grand Teton National Park in 1950, Ida Chambers sold the ranch to the National Park Service, yet retained a life tenancy on the property. Roy Chambers and his wife, Becky, lived at the site until Ida's death in 1989.

Thomas Perry, who was a carpenter, constructed the main house between 1911 and 1917. The living room served as the community school prior to the 1917 construction of Mormon Row's combined church school building. Also at the site are a garage, bunkhouse, chicken coop, windmill and trash dump.
