History:
This
home was built in 1909 for William H. Stanley, president and
treasurer of the Spokane Canning Company and assistant manager of
Kelley Clarke, and his wife Mabel. Stanley came to Spokane from New
York as a grocery broker in 1903 and organized the Canning Company
in 1906. In addition to the Canning Company and Kelley Clarke,
Stanley was president of the Stanley Investment Company and director
of the Fidelity National Bank. The Stanley house sold in 1920 to
Albion B. and Virginia L. Rogers. Rogers was the vice-president of
the Spokane Paper & Stationary Company on W. Havermale, owned by
president and relative Anson F. Rogers. Albion and Virginia owned
the home through the late 1950s.
