Box Addition was built by Mr. H.M. Cosnahan in 1952. Hamilton Munger Cosnahan was born to Robert Waller and Edna Merle (Hughes) Cosnahan on January 6, 1914. H.M. Cosnahan enlisted in the US Army during World War II on October 13, 1942. He married Lucille Burns in Dallas, Texas on December 6, 1946. H.M. and Lucille Cosnahan built the five room brick veneer house at 840 East Worth Street. Mr. Cosnahan was a car dealer and owned the Cosnahan Chevrolet Co. dealership on Main Street in Grapevine; he later owned a couple of car lots in Rockwall and was the owner of Cos Auto Sales in Garland. He was elected Mayor of Grapevine in 1953 after the mayoral term of, grocer and hardware business owner, Gordon Douglas Tate. Mayor Cosnahan is remembered fondly as he called on the City Marshal to ticket well-known character Cotton Thompson for parking his garbage truck in a No Parking zone in front of City Hall. Cotton knew from his other alleged misdeeds, he could insist on a jury trial in a municipal court if he tendered a jury fee of one dollar which led to a put together courtroom in City Hall, six jury members picked from those passing by on the street and the antics of Cotton Thompson, well known as a notorious coffee shop entertainer. Needless to say it was a standing room only courtroom. On July 24, 1954 a fire broke out threatening Grapevine's business district destroying the Donie Chair & Manufacturing Company plant that Friday afternoon. The loss was estimated at $50,000 — 80,000. Grapevine Mayor H. M. Cosnahan announced the fire had swept rapidly through the three Quonset -type buildings housing the plant's machinery. Grapevine's volunteer fire department and units from Arlington, Euless, Haltom City and Colleyville stopped the flames from spreading to downtown stores and nearby homes. The house here at 840 East Texas Street was purchased in 1974 by John and Evelyn Kolb with Evelyn still living here in 2019 and only the second family to own this home. In October 1984, Former Grapevine Mayor H.M. Cosnahan and his wife died in a fire in a luxury hotel in the Philippines while attending an American Legion Reunion of the 401" Anniversary of the islands' liberation during World War II. Former Texas Street neighbor Clara Beth Shelton, wife of R.S. Shelton who served on City Council with Cosnahan, and Joe Box who also served on City Council with him remembered Cosnahan as a man "very much for growth and prosperity of the town as they needed to expand to become a home -rule city. Both supported avoiding inferior housing in Grapevine and joined with other Dallas -Fort Worth officials in an effort to bring the U.S. Air Force Academy to a location on the other side of Grapevine Lake.
