Description

From the Nye County, Nevada Photograph Collection (PH-00221) -- Series V. Smoky Valley, Nevada and Round Mountain, Nevada -- Subseries V.A. Carver, Carver-Duhme, and Carver-Book Families (Smoky Valley). The Belmont courthouse is visible in the distance in the center of the photo. Building with tin roof located on the right was occupied by Rose Walters during the 1940s. The building was once the office of a mining company located in Belmont, and in 1985 was purchased by Nye County Commissioner Robert "Bobby" Revert from John Richardson, who had intended to make a museum out of the building. Revert remodeled the building and now uses it as a residence.
