Frank B. Johnson 1930 -

Mr. Johnson was with the Robison-Rochester Corporation. The family moved to Oklahoma City in 1918, and after living at the Huckins Hotel for a time, bought a house on East Park Street next to John Shirk. They bought the house at 740 N.E. 18th from a builder named Staas and his brother, Karl Staas, an architect. At that time, there were few houses in Lincoln Terrace and the State Capitol could be viewed from their front door.
