*Note: Have met some of the folks who lived in the home through the years...  "NeNe"  who is still the housekeeper for Bea Nolan (next door- original owner of Nolan Farms) lived in the home from 1980-2000. Charles Cutchen was a horse trainer on Dandy Bar Ranch in the 1950s and lived in the home with several other trainers. Dandy Bar Ranch was a Quarterhorse training and breeding ranch (home of Dandy Bar, a rather accomplished Quarterhorse in the 1950s-60s). Lawrence Kidd a horseman and ranch owner from Idaho also was known to have lived here..
