estimated dates of construction that the County gives for the other houses on this block of Front, which all fall between 1892 and 1905. Also, 1892 came soon after the Caledonia Place Addition was platted in 1890. Records indicate that until 1984, Lots 5 and 6 of Block 17, which refer to 1013 and 1001 Front, were owned together. After the Caledonia Place Addition was platted in 1890, the first owner of Lots 5 and 6 (1013 and 1001 Front) was William Beamond, who purchased the lots in 1892 and sold them in 1899. He was the English -born superintendent of the nearby Caledonia Mine. The 1909 Drumm's Wall Map of Louisville was drawn to show the blocks and lots in Louisville at that time along with the location of the primary building on each parcel but not the locations or even the existence of secondary buildings or outbuildings. The 1909 Drumm's Wall Map shows the location of the house at 1001 Front, but not the house at 1013 Front. This is explained by the fact that the lots were owned together for several decades, and 1001 Front was evidently viewed as the primary residence on the lots. (It has been found that other parcels known to have multiple buildings located on them in 1909 received similar treatment on the 1909 Drumm's Wall Map.) The following list is of later owners of 1001 Front and 1013 Front (listed with their periods of ownership). Specific evidence of these owners living at 1013 Front St. could not be located in directories or census records. It is possible that 1013 Front was rented out by some of these owners. • J.C. Williams, 1899-1901 • Thomas Hilton, 1901-1907 • Felix Tomeo, 1907-1917 • P. Frazzini, 1917 • Antonio Lucci, 1917-1926 • John Di Donato, 1926-1930 (acquired by Public Trustee's Deed) • Members of the Emmitt family, 1930-1931 (acquired by Sheriff's Deed) • Members of the Di Donato family for the second time, 1931-circa 1937 Del Pizzo Family Ownership & Later History In 1937, Laurina Del Pizzo purchased Lots 5 and 6 from the Boulder County Treasurer. The main residence of Laurina and Nick Del Pizzo was 1000 Main, just to the west of 1001 and 1013 Front. Laurina Mancini was born in Italy in 1895 and married Nick Del Pizzo there in 1919. Nick came to Louisville in 1920 and was followed by Laurina and their oldest son, Tony in 1923. 2
