This shot is dated in my files as 1908. The teeth along the roofline look right, but the porch seems a bit off, not to mention the distance of the house from Temple Street at foreground. Seems like, in order for it to make sense, it would have to have been moved back at some point, and possibly altered?
I can't say for sure tetsu. One of the great things about the photo Hoss posted was I thought I could finally see the south and east sides of the house behind the Montana Grocery:

Note the Baist map above shows the commercial building on the Gillette home's east side seemingly further away than in the 1890s photo below
