1975 Owner:  Thomas A. & Janet S. Stolmaier. Ir pt 83-84 Sib 1
Description: 2 story Victorian, siding, gable roof: 4 bedrooms and 2.5 baths.
Story 1: 1891 listing at corner of Miami & Harvard: Nicholas Conrady - tailor, Lulu Conrady - seamstress. 1897 (same address) Charles Underwood - painter.  1911-12 Directory: John Grace (Julia) - plasterer.   

John Grace - painter & plasterer married Julie Moran (214 Harvard)

Story 2: This house cannot have been built in 1895, as the Auditor's office lists, since the Conradys were listed as living  there in 1891.  J. W. Sibley bought the property in 1885 and the Conrady's bought it from him in 1886, which would make Mrs. Rixey's building date of 1888 make sense. 
Story 3:  This house originally faced Miami (414 Miami) and the living room was two rooms with a fireplace on each side.  Every room had a fireplace which the Gingrichs removed.  When the Stollmaiers bought the house "there was still a flour grinder on the kitchen wall".  Mrs. Rixey said the house was built in 1888.  She also said two sisters each had a house on the street - 202 and 214 Harvard.  Between them was farm land with arbors, chickens, cows and gardens.  Mrs. Rixey played in the house growing up.  
Story 4: K. M. J. (Cecelia or Seal) Grace (listed as owner #2) probably never lived here but owned a lot of property in Terrace Park and other areas but lived in Hyde Park.  She is a sister of John Grace (listed as owner on the 1939 map of Terrace Park), who was a painter and plasterer.  He married Julie Moran of 214 Harvard.   
Story 5: Hank & Nancy Neighbors' son James Clark Neighbors was born 6 May 1955 and died (aged 24 years) 4 May 1980, buried 10 May 1980 in Spring Grove Cemetery.
