    In 1917, the year the railroad town of Seagraves was platted, Alice Jenkins built this two-story hotel and named it the Hotel Texan. R. P. and Emma Simpson, who owned the Hotel Texan from 1922 to 1923, purchased it again in 1927 and reopened it as the Simpson Hotel. With its stucco exterior and modest detailing, the Simpson Hotel exhibits a style typical of small, early 20th century hotels in West Texas. It continued in operation until 1974. Recorded Texas Historic Landmark, 1991.
