Welcome to Full Circle House

Located in Reno Nevada, our house is over one hundred years old. We know the names of everyone who has lived here. In most cases, we know their history. We've never blogged before, so this will be something new to us. Besides the history of our home, we will be adding information about the neighborhood we live in. When our neighborhood was developed in 1905 it was called the Wells Addition. Today we call it West of Wells. Through future posts and, as we learn more about blogging, there will be more about Full Circle House and our unique neighborhood.

The Zonnevelds (Part 2)

Jim and Connie Zonneveld (1999 to 2004)

Jim was born at Washoe Medical Center (now called Renown) and lived here until he sold the house to Kevin and Amy Moore. After we moved in, Jim gave us the wood stove that was in his kitchen since his parents bought the house. I’ve been trying to date the stove. I have it narrowed down to somewhere between 1902 and 1920. It is possible that this is the original wood stove for this house. Jim also gave us the keys to the original locks to our house. They still work in most of the doors; the other doors probably just need some refurbishing to make them work.
