Also address integrity) <br />The Alice Peterson House is architecturally significant as a Colonial Revival style. It was built for Alice Peterson, a local <br />proprietor who ran a store located at 215 West Fourth Street called, "Peterson's Shoes" It was unusual for a woman to own <br />and operate a local business during this time period, and it was a popular shoe store of the period. Alice Peterson never <br />married, and sold the store to Roy and Melda Kent in the early 1940's. Alice Peterson died in 1946 and was interred at <br />Fairhaven Memorial. The home was purchased b y William and Betty Seliger in 1948. Mr. Seliger was an office worker for <br />B.F. Goodrich. In 1954, he was promoted to District Manager of the tire chain. They lived in the home until the late 1950's, <br />after which time the house changed owners several times. <br />(See Continuation Sheet 3 of 4.) <br />B11.
