I, and others, have been told that this house was moved here from where it served as a gate house ' for the Del Monte Forest, probably on Forest avenue. I guess it is possible that since the Pacific Improvement Co. owned both properties, that they could have moved it in late 1908 or early 1909 and sold it to George & Mary Devilbliss. However, as of4/29/2001, I can find nothing in writing to indicate when or if it happened. Regardless, we will recognize the age of the house in this location as dating to 1909. , OCR Text: 1, , BLOCK 175 LOT(s) 9,10 622 Congress 56 Addition to P. G.
