By Carrina Stanton For The Chronicle When Nadyne Tauscher purchased a run-down home in Centralia 23 years ago, she already had a vision for what she wanted it to become. That vision was so strong, she did the remodel not once but twice. “I refer to it as my money pit,” she said with a laugh. Raised on a dairy farm on Little Hanaford Road, Tauscher purchased her 1927 home on Alder Street in 1990. She said she was immediately drawn to the proper- ty because it was located in the city but was an extremely large lot, at about 1.8 acres. Tauscher can still point to where the original form of the home was but she said both inside and outside it was nothing like what it is to- day. From the perfectly manicured lawns to the orderly home inside, Tauscher said it's hard sometimes to pic- ture what the home looked like when she first bought it. “I had to hire a brush hog and I had to brush hog it three times before I could mow the lawn,” she explained. Tauscher's first order of business after purchasing the Nadyne Tauscher laughs while sitting in her kitchen on Feb. 15 at her home on Alder Street in Centralia. home was to build an office for her appraisal business. Her fiance built a shop for his carpentry and vintage car restoration work. She began remodeling the kitchen in 1993 then redid the living and dining rooms in 1995. But the following year brought the epic flood of 1996 and Tauscher's newly remodeled home ended up with 3/₂ feet of water inside of it. Tauscher was able to save most of the original doors in the home but all of the rest of the original woodwork on the first floor was ruined as was the majority of the work she had just completed, includ- ing touches such as the hand-painted faux-limestone wall paint in her living room. In the wake of the 1996 flood, she applied for an was given a $35,000 grant to raise the home's foundation. She made the decision to actually raise it 1 foot 8 inches higher than the highest recorded flood, rather than the 1 foot above that was required. “I'm glad I did because in 2007 the water was within 6 inches of coming into the house,” Tauscher said. The home raising also gave Tauscher the opportunity to expanded the home in ways she had been wanting to. With the home on blocks, she had both a front porch and a massive back patio added to the structure, features that were missing from the original layout. She also ex- The entrance of Nadyne Tauscher's home. pand her built-on two-car garage into a three-car garage with a storage loft for keeping her sensitive documents safe from floodwaters. While the outside of her home is old-fashioned for- mal charm, the inside of Tauscher's home is an eclectic mix of old and new, and nearly every piece, every wall every nicknack has a story behind it. Tauscher said the inspiration for an entire room can come to her from a single object. For instance, her clean, white kitchen was inspired by a piece of granite she found in Seattle. A small bathroom off the kitchen decorated in black, white and gray was inspired by a cat named Coco who lived with her once in Chehalis, who is immortalized in hand-painted tiles on the wall. The home's front door and its leaded glass (from an ice cream shop in Pittsburgh) were found separately at Up the Creek Antiques in downtown Centralia. Tauscher took them to Eubanks Glass and had them fit the two to-

Layton Family

Submitted by Margaret Cole for “Our Hometowns, Volume 2” The Layton family surrounds an unknown box-like item that was apparently very important to them. Included among the family members in this 1890 photo is the family’s matriarch, Sirrilda Layton, the wife of Francis, who died in 1889, leaving Sirrilda widowed. In the photo, from left: Mrs. Horace Layton, her son Horace (sitting), Louis, Daisy, Rosa, Sirrilda, Caroline, Elias and Emmanuel. The Laytons came by wagon train to Eden Prairie east of today’s Toledo, an area that became Knab and later became Layton Prairie. The Layton family settled in the area in the early 1850s and settled Eden Prairie from Indiana. The name Eden Prairie was signiicant to the family because of the lush lands that brought to mind the biblical Garden of Eden.
