Notes

a. Dr. J. M. and Mrs. Elvira Birkner obtained a building permit (#6602, issued May 29, 1916, estimated cost of $4,000) for a residence at 2009 Sewell Street in Lincoln in May of 1916. Nebr. Building & Investment Co. was their contractor. The application for the permit lists J. R. Kruse as their architect. In the 1914 Lincoln city directory, Kruse was manager of Schaaf Manufacturing Co., a millwork business of building contractor Conrad A. Schaaf. In 1920, Kruse was a draftsman for Camp-Hallett Co. in Lincoln, which manufactured truck cabs and bodies. The house on Sewell is a handsome stuccoed bungalow with very low pitched gable roofs. It seems plausible that Kruse adapted a Tyler design, but that cannot be stated with certainty based on the available information.

b. American Contractor lists a project by James Tyler, Jr. for "Miss Katherine E. Gow" at "35th & Poppleton avs." in Omaha. Catherine Gow resided at 3515 Poppleton according to Omaha city directories. The frame house is a modified American foursquare.
