It is son James' half of the original Samuel Walters home which was divided in two sections. Son Samuels' half stands at the corner of 107th and Leahy Road. The original house was built in 1885 and was located in the area of Walters Lane. The apple tree actually stands in front of the first house on Leahy and is the one remaining tree that Samuel brought back to his Cedar Mill land in 1851 from the California Gold fields.
