Michael O'Connor, who arrived in Longmont in 1876 from Boulder, built both 411 Emery Street in 1903 and 415 Emery Street a year later.

Around 1917, the property was sold to George T. Bragg, who lived in the house until he sold it to his brother, Peter H. in 1924. George was born in Red Wing, Minnesota, on April 21, 1885, the son of Anthony and Bell Bragg. The family came west to Colorado Springs in 1897, operating a meat market there until 1911. The Braggs then moved to Longmont where they opened a meat market on Main Street. Known initially as "Bragg and Sons" and later as "Bragg's Meat Market," the family business was operated over the years by Anthony Bragg and his three sons, Peter, Tony and George. In all, Bragg's Meat Market was in business in downtown Longmont from 1911 until 1946. Following the meat market's closure, George Bragg worked as a real estate agent.
