Historic Sites of Manitoba: Edgar House (703 Main Street North, Dauphin)
This two-storey wood frame house on Main Street North East in Dauphin was constructed in 1899 for furniture merchant William Edgar and, within the next nine years, it was more than doubled in size. Later occupants included educator Robert McKay Stevenson in the late 1920s and early 1930s, a music studio, and the town’s first kindergarten centre.
