Pfeiffer Residence
Custer, ID - The Pfeiffer Residence - Charles Alexander Pfeiffer purchased this family home after his marriage to Ellen Louise Olson in 1890. Charles managed the Pfeiffer Store for his uncle and later worked as a gold and cleanup man at the General Custer Mill. As the family increased in size, a kitchen and bedroom were added. The roof shingles are made of flattened cans. Families in Custer were not an oddity but certainly weren’t the norm either, as most miners and the supporting merchants were single men.

on Aug 10That's a nice find. Very interesting that the roof is of flattened cans. People of older times used what they had.
