Historical Society For Southeast New Mexico

The stately home of Mr. and Mrs. James Phelps White, a Roswell Landmark since its completion in 1912, now stands amidst towering trees at 200 N. Lea, Roswell, New Mexico, as the Historical Center for Southeast New Mexico Museum and Museum Archives. Its a reminder of turn-of-the-century life in this area while preserving documents and photographs. The home is filled with an array of antiques and artifacts. The archives are located in a new building next door to the museum.
