1. Samuel Miles Jr. Home Marker

Inscription. The home was built between 1876-1888 and was continually occupied by the immediate family of Samuel Miles Jr. for a period of 116 years. After his death in 1921, the home was occupied by his daughter Louisa Miles Judd and her husband George until her death in 1978 at age 100 years. Because of the different colors of the adobe, the home was probably built in two different phases.
