"This dwelling is part of the residential development around Stafford Steet which began in the early 1800's when the street was the western edge of Washington. A 2-story masonry dwelling is shown on this lot on the 1926 Sanborn map. Nothing is shown on this lot on the 1916 Sanborn map. This lot is not shown on the earlier Sanborn maps." ~ Washington Historic Survey Phase IV, page 236
