<br /> historic maps in 1926. Interestingly, an unnamed, isolated building is marked in the general vicinity of this house in 1898 only,
<br /> possibly associated with the nearby farm of P. F. Hutchinson.
<br /> The first known occupants at this specific address, in 1935, were Charles Prilgousky, a meatpacker, his wife Emily(both born in
<br /> Lithuania), and four children: Kostanti, a cleaner; Helen K., a rubber worker; Emily, a factory worker; and Allen, no occupation
<br /> given. Charles and Emily Prilgousky, both born in Lithuania, may have lived here by 1930; from 1940 through 1955, Charles's
<br /> occupation was described as a farmer. The Prilgousky family remained at the house through at least 1955. Helen P. Odell, a
<br /> waitress, lived here with Charles and Emily Prilgousky in 1945. By 1955, Charles Prilgousky was accompanied here by Frank J.
<br /> Sanderson, a pressman, his wife Charlotte, and their two children. By 1965, Frank and Charlotte Sanderson were the only adult
<br /> occupants of the house.
<br /> Further research is recommended to document the early history and agricultural associations of this property.
