Also address integrity) The Gibbs-Wasley House is architecturally significant as a characteristic example of the Tudor Revival architectural style in Santa Ana. It was built in 1928 for $15, 000. According to City directories, the first owners were William Isbell Gibbs and his wife Jessamyne Gibbs. They lived in the home for 16 years from 1929 to 1945. Mr. Gibbs was a partner at Gibbs and Scott Auto Repair in the rear of 726 S. Main Street in Downtown Santa Ana. The Gibbs were prolific in the Santa Ana social scene in the 1930s and entertained in the home often. Mrs. Gibbs was involved in local women's organizations. The home was sold in 1947 to rancher Glenne E. Mathis and his wife Charlotte who lived in the home for a short time. In 1954 the home was sold to Dr. William L. Wasley and his wife Ruth. William had several advanced and post -graduate degrees and was a research chemist for the U.S. Department of Agriculture. In 1957, Bill joined the US Department of Agriculture, Western Regional Research Laboratory. His research included fiber and polymer chemistry. In 1962 the home was occupied by George and Vernelle Frazier, George was a local realtor. After 1962 the home was occupied by several owners, in recent years it was owned by Marcia Cruchley who sadly passed away and the home is now in the care of new owners.
