From old entry:
Captain Thomas Kinney House/Davison House Located at 207 NE Front Street. This house was built for Captain Thomas Kinney, one of the sea captains who settled in Coupeville in the 19th century. The original house was the small gable roof section to the north. The three gable rood sections on the south facade were individual small buildings that were attached to the house at a later date. The original wrap-around porch was enclosed on the east facade and incorporated into the house. The Zylstra family lived in the house for several years in the early 20th century and may have been responsible for the remodeling. In more recent years, Luther Weedin lived in the house. Leonona Davison purchased the building from the Weedin Estate in 1973. 1996-2000 Puska's owner, then Roundy and now? 2009
