OEM 0A140 <br /> P70 //I� <br /> In 1917, Mary Weaver sold all six lots to Dr. Clay E. Giffin (1882-1923). He was a physician in <br /> Boulder. <br /> On October 31, 1927, the Longmont Daily Times published a public notice of sale by Boulder <br /> County of properties itemized on a delinquent tax list. The list indicated that Dr. Giffin's estate <br /> owed $7.94 in delinquent taxes on Lots 1-6, which were listed as having a valuation of$180. <br /> Dirkes Family Ownership, 1939-1956; Date of Construction <br /> In 1939, Edward Dirkes purchased Lots 1-6 of Block 2 from the Boulder County Treasurer. In <br /> 1944, Edward transferred ownership to himself and his wife, Martha. <br /> The 1948 Boulder County Assessor card for 901 Parkview gave 1939 as the date of construction, <br /> as does the Boulder County Assessor website today. Boulder County has at times been found to <br /> have been in error with respect to the dates of construction of Louisville properties, so other <br /> evidence is looked to. In this situation, the 1939 date is believed to be correct.There was no <br /> evidence found that would indicate the presence of a house at 901 Parkview earlier than 1939. <br /> In addition, it makes sense that the Dirkes family, upon purchasing the lots, would have then <br /> soon thereafter constructed the house in which they were known to have lived. <br /> Edward Dirkes (1904-1989) was born in British Columbia, Canada. His parents were from <br /> Germany and Scotland. Martha Hernu (1906-1.999) was born in Illinois. Her parents were from <br /> France and Belgium. Both relocated to Louisville with their respective families, and after each <br /> losing a parent, before 1920. Martha's father worked as a miner in Louisville, as did Edward's <br /> stepfather. <br /> Edward Dirkes and Martha Hernu married in 1927. Edward and Martha's children were Helen <br /> (1929-2001) and Edward Jr. (1930-2004). Edward worked as a miner.The following photo from <br /> a public family tree on Ancestry.com shows Edward and Martha Dirkes: <br /> 2 <br />
