| Additional Information: | Built between 1919 and 1921. This residence was built by Lloyd M. and Grace Kanters. Kanters was the assistant chief engineer at the Waukesha Motor Co. Although it appears that Grace died in the 1940s, Lloyd remained in the home until his death in 1967 or 1968. Thereafter, Robert, one of the Kanters eight children, purchased the home; he retained it until 1975. |
