Additional Information: | In 1878, Pritchard was a watchman at a woolen mill. He also worked as a policeman at times. By 1914, the front addition was constructed and his son, Earl, operated a grocery store in the space. The Pritchard's lived in the house until at least 1925. The addition served as a confectionary from at least 1920-1937. The house was converted to a sheet metal works office by 1943. |
