Mr. House leaves four children, Harry H. House of Corona; Miss Verna G. House, Oakland; Meredith House, Los Angeles; and Mrs. Blye McIntosh, Carlsbad.
Mr. House was born in Onondaga County, New York, on September 25, 1854. With his father's family, he moved to Illinois.
In 1879 Mr. House went to Boulder County, Colorado, where he was employed as superintendent of mines in the Jimtown district until he came to Riverside
Coming to Riverside in 1881, Mr. House identified himself with the development of horticultural interests. He engaged in setting out citrus and deciduous groves for non-resident owners, and superintended their care. He later purchased and planted a 95-acre tract in West Riverside to apricots and peaches.
On March 5, 1882, Mr. House became a member of the First Baptist church of Riverside and at the time of his death his name appeared on the rolls as the oldest member with respect to the period of his affiliation with the church.
His marriage to Miss Anna Heywood, who was a sister of the late Mrs. B. F. Rockhold, took place in Wyoming, Illinois on April 13, 1887.
After establishing a home in Riverside, CA with his new bride, he then turned his attention to general farming and the growing of alfalfa, but disposed of his interests in 1896. For three years he was inspector for the county horticultural commission. With the formation of Riverside County, he was made a member of its first horticultural commission, upon which he served as chairman for a time.
For many years Mr. House was engaged as buyer and shipper of both citrus and deciduous fruits, and in 1896 became manager for A. Gregory, well known Southern California shipper. In later years he engaged in the real estate business.
