Its period revival design, substanüal scale, and generous setback contribute to the <br />elegant and distinctive streetscape on North Victoria Drive. According to the original building permit, the house was built in <br />1930 at a oostof$15,000, a large sum at/he time, by Roy Russell, the primary developer of North Victoria Drive. From 1931 <br />unti/1935, Orange County directories indicate that Robert E. and Grace G. Reid owned the house. Mr. Reid was President <br />of the Reid Motor Company. Clarence H. Hoiles and his wife Mabelle S. Hoiles resided at the address from 1936 unül at <br />least 1959, according to directories and building permits. Clarence H. Hoiles was the son of Raymond Hoiles, who became <br />publisher of the Santa Ana Register in 1935 and lived at 1917 Victoria Drive. As Secretary of the Register Publishing <br />Company, Clarence Hoiles was in charge of the business affairs of the paper. The Hoiles published the paper until 1987; <br />during their tenure, both the county and the paper, which became The Reaister in 1955 and the Oranae County Reaister in <br />1987, witnessed tremendous growth. <br /> <br />(See Continuation Sheet 3 of 4.) <br /> <br />811.
