The Stewart-Woolley House in Kanab, Utah, is a Gothic Revival and Late Victorian residence built in 1872 for Levi Stewart, a Latter-day Saint who had converted in Illinois in 1837 and relocated to Kanab in 1870. Following his tenure as local bishop, the house was acquired in 1889 by Edwin D. Woolley, a native of Nauvoo, Illinois, who occupied it with his first wife, Emma Geneva Bentley, and their twelve children. The couple's daughter Mary E. Woolley Chamberlain later became mayor of Kanab from 1911 to 1913. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 2001, the house stands as a significant example of mid-nineteenth-century domestic architecture in the American West.
