Also address Integrity) <br />The Rosenmeyer House is a good example of Craftsman bungalow architecture. The house was constructed in 1910 for <br />Henry and Elizabeth (Lizzie) Rosenmeyer at a time when this area was not within the legal city limits, but was considered rural <br />Santa An until 1912. This was to be their retirement home. Originally from Ohio, Henry and Lizzie met and married in Indiana <br />in 1907. The Rosenmeyers were active in the community and hold many events at their home. In 1911, they had a barn built <br />towards the back of their property. Henry passed away in the home in 1922, and services were held at Smith and Tuthill <br />Funeral Parlor. Elizabeth passed away a decade later. Both are buried at Fairhaven Cemetery. The house changed <br />ownership several times after the Rosenmeyers were gone. Ranchers (James and Lydia Kile) lived in the home from 1938 to <br />1940 as witnessed by their newspaper ad dated January 11, 1940: '40 R,I.R.hens and putlets. 12 Cross Red pullets ". By <br />1947, the house was owned by Walter and Mary Wortendyke. Walter worked his way tip the ranks to be a California Highway <br />Patrol officer who was well liked in the community. The Wortendykes remained in the home until 1952. <br />(See Continuation Sheet 3 of 4.) <br />811. Additional Resource Attributes: (List attributes and codes) <br />Sketch Map_ <br />- 326 W.
