| Bibliographic References: | Permit dates to 3 October 1938; est. cost, $9,000. Owner Henry J. Ball; contractor, William F. Thalman. Ball resided 8025 W. Wisconsin Avenue, so this was likely an investment for him. House most likely not completed until 1939. As of the 1940 census, Mrs. Minnie Dougherty (widow of Everett) is identified as the owner. She was the manager of the Milwaukee Business University. In 1991 (permit, 2 July), the rear porch was removed and a new one constructed. |
