Stoneman and his wife, Louise Archer, had come to Utah from England in 1878 after being converted to M-jrmonism. Prior to building this complex, he had operated a store at 444 Wast 4th North. Stoneman continued to operate the store (later called the "Live and let Live" Grocery Store) until his death. It was then taken over by his second wife and widow, Nellie, who continued to live here and operate the store with the help of her children. |
