This lovely old house was
built by Simon and Mattie
Taylor Cotulla in 1924 at 304
Leona Street in Cotulla. It is
currently owned by their grand-
son, Bill Cotulla, who rents it.
Simon Cotulla was born in
Atascosa County in 1878, the
son of Joseph and Mary Rieder
Cotulla. In 1881, the family
moved to La Salle County
where Joseph had founded the
town of Cotulla. Simon was
the last survivor of nine chil-
dren born to Joseph and Mary
Cotulla.
Mr. Simon married Miss
Mattie Taylor of Devine and
two sons, Roy and Paul, were
born to this union.
His first business interest
in Cotulla was a confectionary
shop located next to the old
Majestic Theatre. He did not do
so well here as he gave away
quantities of ice cream to chil-
dren and friends besides
serving too generous amounts
to his customers.
His next venture was a meat
market with a small store and
ice service for the people of
cotulla. The ice was shipped in
by train car loads and kept in
an insulated room that was
built next to the Presbyterian
Church.
Paul and Roy grew up in the
second house south of this one
- that is now known as Miss
Alice Copp’s house. There were

no streets. Everyone had a weH
of water with a windmill,
a milk cow, an outdoor privacy
and plenty of room for children
to play. The Cotulla yard was a
favorite of the boys, for they
played football, had a tennis
court and loved baseball. Paul
said they all loved Gladys
Soles Favors for she made
candy for them.
