Sonora Spanish Style Home

I remember 20 plus years ago talking to Mrs Haynes the owner of this Sonora Spanish Style residence and she explained to me that she was from Southern California and her and her husband and moved to Sonora in the early 1920's and her husband was the first manager of JC Penney.

She wanted to bring Spanish style architecture to Sonora.

Today this is a Sonora classic and can be seen at the corner of Lyons & Hope Lane.
