William Allen was an active architect of Utah, from the 1870s when he acquired the property this house sits on until at least 1918. William Allen’s architectural style was very distinctive. The small brick building in the back was his studio where he drew the plans and specifications for many of the best buildings in Davis County, including his own home.

William & Ellen Bone’s first home had a roof made of boughs with sod over them and a dirt floor, but they stayed there just a short time. In 1865 William built a four-room brick home with one large attic room, at 161 North Main Street. He also built a small shop on the south-east corner of the property where he plied his trade as a shoemaker.
