William Pratt Feth (1866–1959) and Myron K. Feth were architects in Kansas.[1] A number of their works are listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places.[2]
The Nathaniel H. Burt House by William P. Feth is significant both for its association with the Burt family, an "industrial family", and also for its association with architect Feth, "who designed the dwelling incorporating characteristics of two American architects of the period, H. H. Richardson and Richard Morris Hunt."[3]
