Also address integrity) <br /> <br /> The Wilson House is significant as a representative example of a Colonial Revival house from the early 1920s in Santa Ana. It <br />is also important as a contributor to the French Park Historic District. According to previous research, the original owners were <br />Roscoe and Grace Wilson, who also developed houses at 1227 and 1229 North French Street at around the same time. The <br />Wilsons resided in this house until at least 1947. Mr. Wilson was president of the Santa Ana Preserving Company on Fruit <br />Street before founding The Wilson Company, a manufacturer of perfumes and toiletries also located on Fruit Street. He <br />continued with The Wilson Company into the 1940s (Marsh, 1998). <br /> <br /> (See Continuation Sheet 3 of 3.) <br /> <br />B11.
