In June 1887, John B. Spalding, his wife Nell, and two small children, Blanche and Wright moved into their new home at 80 S. Pine Street, Susanville. The Spaldings had two more children, Wright and Zella, who were born in the home. In 1938, Zella with her husband, Med Arnold moved into the family residence and it remained in the family until it was sold in 1974.

In 1992, the home was moved to Lake Forest Estates to make way the realignment of the highway curve into Susanville.
