It is one-and-a-half stories tall, with a mansard roof and several dormer windmY's, thus giving the hone a Second Empire style appearance. Most of the home is sheathed in white painted wood siding and unique to Beaver's historic buildings are the wooden "quoin stones" found on the corners. There are two porches on the home, one with lathe-turned fancy work and a larger one with jigsaw work for decorative effect. The upstairs dormers are all covered with decorative shingles and the windows. on the ground floor each have wooden pediments over them. The home is in excellent structural shape though it needs maintenance. With its impressive appearance, its nicely landscaped grounds and its wrought iron fence, it is easy to see that the home was once one of Beaver's mansions. Statement of Historical Significance: >cc o)-- V) ~I(...v,.:-·c.."''-'T Construction Date: The home is Histerie because of its historic date, its unaltered architectural integrity, its unique wooden quoins and its somewhat rare frame construction. It was built by James Fennemore who was a merchant and Beaver's first professional photographer . Among other jobs, he photographed John D. Lee's execution at the Mountain Meadows for his part in the massacre at that site twenty years earlier. Fennemore promised Lep that he would send a photograph to each of Lee's three wives. Mr. Fennemore buill. frame sections of the house and sold it in 1898 to J.F. Tolton, a prosperous mercha ,lL in town. Mr. Tolton enlarged the house considerably, adding the two brick additions to the \Y'est as well as converting the upstairs attic into four bedrooms with dormer windows.

Listing in the National Register provides the properties: foll~~ing -"// benefits to historic -Consideration in the planning for federally- assisted projects.

T MELVIN T. SMITH. DIRECTOR 3QORIOGRANDE SALT LAKE CITY. UTAH 84101 TELEPHONE [phone] Dear Ms. Lee: Shortly after completion of the review meetings and comment deadlines for consideration of the nomination of those buildings in Beaver which appear eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic places, Congress passed ammendments to the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966. One of the ammendments formalized a procedure that had already been in effect here in Utah--providing the owners of properties under consideration for nomination to the National Register of Historic Places, the opportunity to object to the listing. Your property, at )95 North 200 East, has been recommended for nomination. If 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 alter your property just the same as if it were not listed in the National Regi.s ter. The purpose of the listing is to document and identify those buildings, houses and sites and structures, which help us understand the past history and development of communities, the state, or the nation. There are some tax benefits for rehabilitation work on commercial buildings and one tax penalty if you demolish a listed building. The tax penalty is that you are not able to write off as an allo,"/able expense the demolition costs. If you wish to object to the listing of your property in the National Register you must submit to us a notarized statement that you are the owner of the property and that you object to its listing in the National Register of Historic Places. The notarized letter will insure that your property will not be listed in the Register and only a determination of the property's eligibility for the National Register will be made. The notarized statement objecting to the nomination must be submitted before ~~y 1st of this year at which time the nomination will be forwarded to the National Register Office for final action. We would also appreciate any letters in support of the nomination of your property. I will be in Beaver on Tuesday March 16th at the Beaver County Courthouse in the Commision Chambers from 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. to answer any questions about the nomination and any other questions you may have.

Elizabeth Griflith • William O. Owens . One final note, the Utah State Historical Society has received funds to publish the study of Beaver compiled by Linda Bonar which led to this nomination of Beaver's historic properties. 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 hfstor,y, and a photograph and short history of each of the historic buildings in the community. I am enclosing a copy of the structure/site information form which will be used in preparing the history of your property. Please read it and if you have . any additional information or corrections please send them to me, or stop by the courthouse on March 16th. I will have a copy of the Avenues book wi th me so that you can see the format for the Beaver publication which we hope to have out the end of this year or early in 1983. Inclusion of your property in the National Register or in the proposed publication does not mean that tourists and visitors have any right to tour your house or trespass on your property. We have not had reports with this being a problem. It is always a pl easure for me to be· in Beaver--your community is uniqu.e in the state and your efforts at preserving the historical resources of your community will . be greatly appreciated by future generations.· Please send any comments to me at the Utah State Historical Society, 300 Rio Grande, Sal t Lake City, Utah, 84101, or call I1Je at 533-6017.

We concur the building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. However, before we can comment on effect we need some additional information on the proposed work. First, what kind of shingles will be used for the re-shingling? Second, we need a photograph or drawing of the area of the house where the new accessible entrance and porch will be added. Placing it on a secondary elevation is commendable. Finally, we need at least a schematic drawing of what this new entrance/porch assembly will look like in elevation, e.g., railing, roof, materials, etc. This information is provided to assist the Rural Development Agency with its Section 106 responsibilities as specified in 36 CFR 800.

As you know, the historic James Fennemore House at 195 North 200 East is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. The state historic preservation tax credit provides for a credit equal to 20 percent of qualified rehabilitation expenditures against your state income tax. The state tax credit law requires that all proposed or on-going work must be approved by our office as meeting the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation before the project is completed. Also, a minimum of $10,000 must be spent on the rehabilitation over a maximum period of 36 months. There is no fee to apply for this tax credit. The complete application is available from our office and is separate from any review or application that may be required by a local preservation commission or other organizations (e.g., landmarks Commission or the Utah Heritage Foundation). We encourage you to apply as soon as possible to verify if anyon-going work meets the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation. Once work is underway, changes to bring the project into conformance with the Standards can be difficult, expensive or occasionally impossible to make. Photographs showing all area of work prior to the beginning of construction are required as part of the application. We hope the state historic preservation tax credit can make this rehabilitation project more economically feasible. Please let us know if you have any questions or if we can be of further assistance.
