Architect! Builder: , , Samuel Orson Hhite UJ a:: ::;) t- U Building Materials: UJ tI U a:: ~ Building Type/Style: Site No: BV-04-372 brick single cell-crosswing, remodeling/vernacular Description of physical appearance & significant architectural features: (Include additions , alterations, ancillary structures, and landscaping if applicable) The original portion of this home was built in 1869 by Samuel Orson White and his three brothers. This section of the house consists of one front room with a rear extension, giving it a rectangular plan. The roof has a low angle p~tch a~d there is a Greek Revival style cornice with a boxed return. _ The front facade has a windowdoor-window piercing pattern, all arranged with bilateral symmetry and there are wooden lintels above them. In this portion of the house there is a large, central chimney, located on the ridge of the rear extension. The addition to the west was also built by Samuel White and was constructed over about a four year period, beginning in 1887. This section is 1~ stories tall and has a steeply pitched roof. The half story is used as bedrooms and is lit by two windows in each gable end. There are two larger windows below the two upstairs ones and these have cut pink rock lintels above them. There is a black rubble rock foundation and a Greek Revival style cornice. This portion of the home has better quality brickwork than the original section. There has been a non-historic addition built on to the home on the rear. Also on the lot is a very interesting pink rock granary. It has the date "1882" incised in the lintel over the front door and would therefore be an early pink rock structure, as the pink rock quarry was opened c. 1880. The rock was probably quarried by Samuel White and is of poor quality. The blocks are quite large, the granary is gabled and it displays a modest cornice. The walls are very thick and 5 >- ~ ~ I Statement of Historical Significance: it is quite large for a granary. Construction Date: The Samuel o. White house is significant for several reasons: the original one-story section of the house (see shaded area on floorplan) was one of the very early permanent homes in Beaver, having been constructed hy Mr. White himself around 1869-1870. The single-cell with lean-to plan and the massive fireplace are typical of the first building phase in the town. The 1887 remodeling of the White home is also significant because it follm.;rs a typical pattern of house addition found in Utah during the late 19th century. A l~ story wing has been placed perpendicular to the original gabled section, thereby producing a complete and fashionable rendering of the then popular cross-wing house type. In this case, a smaller house was enlarged according to the prevailing architectural tastes_ of the community. Samuel White was a farmer and a freighter, using his teams and wCl:gons to haul goods to the mining town of Firsco in Western Beaver County. On the return trip, he picked up goods from the railroad town of ~lilford and other towns along his route. Samuel was born in Nauvoo, Illinois, in 1844 and married Ellen Gudgeon who was 22 years his junior. Mr. White's journals say that the original portion of the house cost $86 in materials to build, the labor, of course, not being included. The journals that begin in 1887 mention small pieces of construction - done during free moments as they were completed by Samuel on the new section of his house. For example, the November 18, 1887 entry reads "I got the chimney topped out and the corrdce painted so I could take the scafold down and took the flooring for the lm.;rer floor to that (?) to have it dressed." By July 9, 1889, he reported that the house was" all ready for plastering" on the interior over the lathe. Yet another entry describes how he took a load of whey to someone in payment for some bricks (October 21, 1887). The home has retained its historic integrity and remains unaltered on -the exterior except for an addition on the rear that is not readily visible. The porch was added to the house at the time of the 1887 remodeling. 315 No. 1st E. Sign. Site #68 Beaver~ Beaver Co .• Ut. East Facade Photo by F. Aegerter~ 1981 Neg.

Your property, at 315 North 100 East, has been recommended for nomination. 'I f listed in the National Register of Historic Places there are no restrictions placed on you as a property owner. You are still able to sell, renovate , demolish or al t er your property just the same as if it were not listed in the National Regi.ster.

The publication is patterned after a book published in 1980, The Avenues of Salt Lake City, which has been received with great enthusiasm by residents of the Avenues and others interested in Utah history. The publication on Beaver will include an historical . overview, section on Beaver's architectural history, and a photograph and short history of each of the historic buildings in the community.

White & Ms. White: It is my distinct pleasure to inform you that on November 29, 1983, the Samuel White House, nominated by the Historic and Cultural Sites Review Committee and the Utah State Historic Preservation Officer, was officially listed in the National Register of Historic Places by the National Park Service and Ms. Carol Shull, Acting Keeper of the National Register.. The National Register of Historic places is the official list of historic properties recognized by the Federal Government as worthy of preservation for their significance in American history, architecture, archeology, engineering and culture. Located in the National Park Service, Department of the Interior, ' the program is part of a national policy to coordinate and support public and private efforts to identify, evaluate, and protect our cultural and natural resources, and is maintained by the Secretary of the Interior under provisions of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966. Listing in the National Register provides the following benefits to historic. properties: -Consideration in the planning for federally assisted projects. Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 provides that the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation be given an opportunity to corrnnent on projects affecting such properties. -Eligibility for Federal tax benefits for rehabilitations of certain historic corr~ercial, industrial and residential rental buildings. -Consideration of historic values in the decision to issue a surface coal mining permit where coal is located, in accord 'with the Surface Mining and Control Act of 1977. . . -Qualification for Federal grants for historic preservation \vhen foods are available. Listing in the National Register of Historic Places does not place restrictions on the property or mean that the federal government wants to acquire the building or site. Any restrictions which may be placed on a property are the result of local zoning ordinances and not the National · Register Program. We would like to send you an 11" x 11" parclunent certificate with the gold seal of Utah. It contains the name of the site, ·the nature of its significance, the date of listing, and the signatures · of Governor Matheson, Milton Abrams, Chairman of the Historic and Cultural Sites Review Committee, and Melvin T. Smith, Director of the Utah State Historical Society and Utah' 5 State Historic Preservation Officer. There is no charge. If you would like the certificate, please let us know by mail or call 533-6017. We do suggest that a marker be placed to' give your historic property recognition . .

Bonar Date: /7 /79 9 Street Address: 4 w 315 North 100 East Architect/ Builder: 1869 and 1887 Site No: Samuel Orson White a: ;:) I- ow !:: :I: o a: < 5 > a: o I~ :I: Building Materials: brick Building Type/Style: Description of physical appearance & significant architectural features: (Include additions, alterations, ancillary structures, and landscaping if applicable) The original portion of this home was built in 1869 by Samuel Orson White and his three brothers. This section of the house consists of one front room with a rear extension, giving it a rectangular plan. The roof has a low angle pitch and there is a Greek Revival style cornice with a boxed return. The front facade has a window-doorwindow piercing pattern, all arranged with bilateral symmetry and there are wooden lintles above them. In this portion of the house there is a large, central chimney, located on the ridge of the rear extension. -The addition to the west was also built by Samuel White and was constructed over about a four year period, beginning in 1887. This section is l~ stories tall and has a steeply pitched roof. The half story is used as bedrooms and is lit by two windows in each gable end. There are two larger windows below the two upstairs ones and these have cut pink rock lintles above them. There is a black rubble rock foundation and a Greek Revival style cornice. This portion of the home has better quality brickwork than the original section. There has been a non-historic addition built on to the home on the rear. Also on the lot is a very interesting pink rock granary. It has the date 111882 11 incised in the lintle over the front door and would therefore be an early pink Ptl5H12 S structure, as the pink rock quarry was opened c.1880. The rock was probab y quarried by Samuel White and is of poor quality. The blocks are quite large, the granary is gabled and it displays a modest cornice. The walls are very thick and it is quite large for a granary. Statement of Historical Significance: Construction Date: _~ite Ho~~e is ;~;~if-~~~~; ~-~~s s~~~aff-ea~~s. It iii II very e~ Beaver, having been built by Mr. White himself c.1869. There were brothers and they all built their homes in the same neighborhood {on 100 Wes he construct" Samuel White was a farmer and a freighter, using his teams and wagons to haul goods to the mining town of Frisco in Western Beaver County. On the return trip, he picked up goods from the railroad town of Milford and other towns along his route. Samuel was born in Nauvoo, Illinois, in 1844 and married Ellen Gudgeon who was 22 years his junior. Mr. White's journals say that the original portion of the house cost $86 in materials to build, the labor, of course, not being included. The journals that begin in 1887 mention small pieces of construction - done during free moments as they were completed by Samuel on the new section of his house. For example, the November 18, 1887 entry reads III got the chimney topped out and the cornice painted so I could take the scafold down and took the flooring for the lower floor to that (?) to have it dressed ll • By July 9, 1889, he reported that the house was lIall ready for platering ll on the interior over the lathe. Yet another entry describes how he took a load of whey to someone in payment for some bricks. (October 21, 1887). The home has retained its historic integrity and Femains unaltered on the exterior except for an addition on the rear that is not ~ visible. nJ-e. fOUl-! 1fJ~ A-OOW lD ~ A.T f\tE 'rImE" (J; WE 1887 2H(IDl)f u ~j~. hous~n '* ..

White House, constructed in 1869 with a major addition built on in 1887, documents a typical pattern of house addition in Utah towns during the late Nineteenth century. The original one-story portion of the house is one of the earliest permanent homes in Beaver, and the addition reflects the increased prosperity of White, a farmer and freighter, during a period of economic growth in Beaver.
