Notes:
D — As per Marie Olson, houses possibly located where Bullwinkle's is now? Sam Wanamaker (now at Fireweed) may have lived over there.
F) Austin and Lillian Hammond, then Joe Moses; at right is Jennie Young, then (daughter) Alice Young Nelson. Tiny house in front is Williams, then Nakumure? The James family home was next to the Young/Nelson house, and it burned in 1958. Karl as a child tried to save the screaming occupants, but was restrained. Anna Beaver is a daughter of that family?
Jimmy Fox had a house, Ardeia had a house, Fordeio had a house, Gambell was behind Cropley house. (All per Karl Nelson and Judy Franklet )
