The house

In 1915 the directory lists Wm E Hinch.

In 1925 the directory lists O E Ford.

In 1935 the directory lists Mrs M A Miller. The directory marks the name with *: some member of the family owns the property, to the best of its knowledge.

In 1945 the directory lists G R Dunn. This name is marked * too.

After 1945 we don't show residents' names: in 1955 the directory lists one household (rooms to let).

Today

A building from before 1946 still stands here: the City's assessment record gives 1910 as the year built.
