| Story1: | Previous summer cottage was converted to year 'round home in 1906. The house was painted off-black when the Jordans bought it in memory of Mary Finch's husband who died in the house - converted to green ("after a number of re-paintings") by the Jordans. One of the Jordan's house painters was a Fred Huber who reported he had worked in Austria as a house painter with Adolf Hitler (Schikelgruber - his father's mother's name). Jordans bought the house in 1943 as they had a defense contract and B gas permit so they could drive to Terrace Park. The air conditioning was designed for the house by John Jordan. At some time the back stair was converted to a kitchen closet. The original house burned at some time so we don't really know when this one was built. (John Jordan). The Jordan children were Jack, Steve, Tom & Mary Ann. |
| Story2: | John Jordan was Mayor of Terrace Park 1960-63. |
