Scott Quintin.
Certificate reported 1911. 6 houses on record, 5 standing.
The California State Board of Architecture's reports of 1920, 1923 and 1926 list him with certificate B 671. Architect and Engineer printed his certificate from the State Board of Architecture (vol. 26 (Aug. to Oct. 1911), p. 131). The documents behind this record name him as the architect of 6 houses in Alhambra, San Gabriel and San Marino, built from 1923 to 1955; for 5 of them, the Los Angeles County Assessor's record at the same address confirms the house standing.
Every house on record.
Standing houses first, then the rest, each with the name as the documents print it, the builder and the first family where a document names them, and every document behind it.
