8 Manuel and his first wife Maria had five children Manuel, Jr, Fred, Frank, Mabel, Marie, and Frederica. Mr. Terra worked as a tenant farmer. According to the U.S. Census, the family lived on Tassajara Road between Santa Rita and Dublin in 1910, then in 1920, the County Road between Dublin and Sunol. Maria Terra died in 1926 (age 57) and Manuel Terra, Sr. died in 1951. Terra’s second wife Mary moved to Hayward where she died in 1959. A resident of the Sunol area on Niles Canyon Road, Manuel Terra, Jr. (born 1892) moved to the property on Dublin Canyon Road in the 1950s. In 1966, Manuel Terra’s daughter Mabel Terra Lester, built the Ranch House Style residence east of the Bungalow Style house. Mabel Lester inherited the property from her father when he died in 1982. The various sheds and a small chicken coop on the property are modern structures constructed the 1970s or later (Lester 2018). IV. FIELD & RESEARCH METHODS Ward Hill (M.A. Architectural History, 1983, University of Virginia) surveyed the structures in the project area on March 27, 2018. The exterior and interior of the two houses and the related outbuildings were examined. This inspection included photographing and preparing written descriptions of the buildings. During the field survey estimated dates of construction of the buildings was also noted based on stylistic analysis, use of materials, construction techniques, and visual character. The description prepared noted major deterioration, alterations of use and appearance. Historic research on the subject property was conducted at the Dublin Main Library, Dublin; the Pleasanton Library and The Livermore/Amador Genealogy Society archives, Pleasanton; the Alameda County Building Department, Hayward; The Dublin Heritage Center. Historic research included consulting various on-line sources including Ancestry.com, Newspaper Archives online and California Digital Newspapers. Ken MacLennan, historian with the Amador-Livermore Valley Historical Society Museum library, Pleasanton, provided background on the Terra and Fernandes families from their archives. Steven Minniear, President, Dublin Historical Preservation Association was also consulted regarding the history of the project area. V. BUILDING DESCRIPTIONS General Setting & Landscape The two detached, single family, single story houses at 11033 and 11021 Dublin Canyon Road are in a semi-rural area of single-family houses on large lots (APN 941-2500-002, -003). The total of 124 acres south of Dublin Canyon Road includes the parcel with the two houses and the adjacent Lester parcels. The lot that includes the houses first slopes up gently to the south from Dublin Canyon Road. Continuing to the south (in back of the houses) is a steep, tree covered hillside. The two adjacent houses are aligned on an east/west axis (11033 on the east and 11021 on the west) at an acute angle to Dublin Canyon Road. Dublin Canyon Road takes a sharp turn to the north from the parcel with the two houses with face north toward the street. Their set back from the street varies from 50 to 100 feet because of the angle of the road in relation to the parcel. A perimeter chain link fence encloses the front yards of the two houses. The area in back of both houses includes a variety of modern outbuildings (storage shed, small chicken coop etc.) and a small mobile home (currently occupied).
