This home was built in the 1920s. An impressive sized home, the current owner Danny Damron, was told it was built by a wealthy family. In 1944 Ferron V. and Margaret Nichols lived there. Ferron was the assistant vice president and assistant manager at First Security Bank. In 1950, he lived at 1082 E. 620 N. In 1953 he lived at 1047 Cedar. In 1950 Leo J. and Adleen F. Knight lived in the home. At the time he was the manager of Right Weight Coal and Transport Company (575 S. 500 W.) The company declared in its advertisement in the Polk Directory that it had “Utah’s cleanest, hardest, hottest coal.” In 1953 Right Weight had changed its name to Right Weight Coal, Lumber and Feed Company. Knight worked as a salesman for Beesley Monument and Vault. In the 1960s David R. and Colleen K Dinsdale lived in the home. David worked as a teacher in Orem. Damron believes that the Dinsdales bought the home from Colleen’s parents. Colleen lived in the home before she was married. The Dinsdales told the Damrons that the floor was rotted because rodents had destroyed the hardwood floors. The Damrons removed the carpet and found only two boards that were damaged. They replaced the board and finished the floor. The Damrons have heard stories about the oak wood. Like many Utah homes though, the wood is mostly pine and was painted to look like oak. The home was listed at this address in 1944. He worked for Geneva at the time. Later he worked as a watchman at Suttons Café. Dean Christensen owned this home in the 1960s and rented it to students. According to the current owner, it had the nickname as Toad Hall.
