Paulina and Edwin Hans built this home in 1895. Edwin was a woodworker who later worked for Oliver Plow. They raised their five children, Lloyd, Lula, Edwin, Clarence and Elizabeth. The Hans family resided here into the 1930s. The small cottage behind the home may have been built as extra space for the large family.
