Their home was on the Victorian Home Tour: The Huntley House - 1302 Grand avenue - Italianate built in 1877 by Ezra Huntley who was in the California gold rush. The low, hipped roof, the overhanging eaves with decorative brackets, and the round-headed windows with hood moldings, are all typical of this style. Having been a sailor in his youth, Mr. Huntley had the molding around the front door braided like a rope. ~ (Next owned by Dr Charles B Guinn, then his son Richard C Guinn).
