Warren Dutton, (1823-1903) co-founder of Tomales, came here from the gold fields in 1852, staked a claim to what is now known as Upper Town, and became partners with John Keys. Within a few years the relationship deteriorated, but the bitter rivalry between the two marked the progress of the town. The fence between the park and the field next to the Catholic Church marks the original line between Keys' and Dutton's properties.

In 1857 Mr. Dutton had a 14-room house built on this site, and erected a stone store a few years later. The store was lost in the 1906 Earthquake, and the house was one of at least sixteen buildings destroyed in a disastrous fire on May 24, 1920.
