Also address integrity) <br />The Geddes-Charlton House is architecturally significant as an intact example of a Tudor Revival style house in Santa Ana. <br />According to City building records, it was built in 1934 for approximately $5,000, for Dr. Mabel A. Geddes; however, the <br />original architect and builder are unknown. Dr. Geddes only resided at the property for two years; she was known as a <br />supervisor of health for Orange County schools, Board member of the Young Women’s Christian Association (YWCA) of <br />Santa Ana, and a Chairperson of Orange County Nutrition Committee. In 1936, she moved out of the subject property and <br />into the property two houses over, at 1916 Greenleaf Street. By 1937, the subject property was occupied by W. H. Charlton, <br />until 1939 when City Directories list the property as vacant. <br />(See Continuation Sheet 3 of 5.) <br />B11. Additional Resource Attributes: (List attributes and codes) <br />*B12.
