1138 Clara St - published 1986, original date unknown1204 viewsConstructed in 1919, the design of this two-story stucco-clad residence was inspired by the Prairie Style houses of Frank Lloyd Wright, which incorporated shallow-pitched hip roofs with wide overhangs. Reputedly, it was built by its first owner, Ellis H. Boyd, part owner of a motor company and oil well manufacturing company in the 1920's. With further documentation, the house may be eligible for the National Register.

2304 Edwin St., circa 19301189 viewsPhoto courtesy of Tom and Eileen Richey. If you look closely at the bush in front of the chimney, you can see Bess Rector, who built the house in 1929. The Richeys received the photos from Bess Rector's son, Howard. The Richeys also have the original blueprints and builder's specs. Tom Richey says he has "compiled a history of ownership of the house over the years but nobody rich and famous ever lived here."altonjim
