It was built in 1898-1901 by Jonathan Chester Knudson, a Mormon businessman whose father was a Danish-born convert to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.[2] Knudson lived here with his wife, née Jennie Ellen Pritchard.[2] In the 1930s, the house was inherited by their son, Jonathan Chester Knudson Jr., also a Mormon businessman, who lived here with his wife, Lucille.[2] It was later deeded to their son, Jake, who lived here with his Japanese wife, Tomie Kono, a Tenrikyo minister.[2] The house remained in the Knudson family until 1998.[2]
