| Description: | Originally a carriage house or barn for 625 Elm, the "Stuntz House" (See story 2). List of early owners (Orig Owner) is from Jack Baxter when in his 80s. People also remember horses in this area. Jack Baxter's probably about 5 year old daughter from next door (603 Home) once watched a calf being born . |
| Story1: | 1978 Whittaker to Weston lots 119, 120, 1/2 111(?) |
| Story2: | After 1945 Alice Mitchell (see 624 Yale for Mitchell) Thomsen made the underground horse barn into a house.(?) The elephant house was also underground for heat in the winter and cool in the summer. (This story and the people concerned needs further research since according to Jack Baxter there were others living there before Thomsen.) |
