“Minerva Parker, 14 South Broad Street, is working on a set of drawings for a frame house at Johnstown, PA., for Max M. Suppes. The cost will be $3,500.” (April 23, 1888)

“Among the plans recently furnished by Miss Parker are…a large frame dwelling for Max Suppee [sic], erected at Johnstown, PA.” (March 26, 1890)

Max Suppes was a superintendent at the Johnson Company, a rolling mill in Johnstown, Pennsylvania, before becoming the manager of the Lorain Steel Company in Lorain, Ohio. It is unclear what circumstances and connections led them to commission a house from Minerva in 1888.
