History

Zula Warren was born on August 12, 1870, near Hillsboro with the family residence near what is today 10th Avenue and East Main Street.[3] She married local doctor Samuel Towers Linklater after she turned 28 years old and would have six children with the widower.^[3] The husband died on February 8, 1914, with Zula using the family investments to support the family and build a new home.^[3]

Daughter Ruth requested that her mother build a home "that would last forever."^[3] Construction began in 1922 on the house on a property Samuel had bought in 1889.^[3] The concrete dwelling was completed in 1923.^[2] On February 8, 1930, Zula died and the home passed to her son Kenneth.^[3] He lived there briefly, but never sold the home, with the residence changing ownership after his death in 1983.^[3] Kenneth married Jeanne Latourette, the daughter of Earl C. Latourette of the Oregon Supreme Court.^[4]

On August 1, 1984, the house was added to the National Register of Historic Places as the Zula Linklater House.
