Douglas Charles Loveday was my Great x2 Grandfather's brother. Yes he built Loveday Opera House in 1899 - He was actually born Oct 15 1840. I can send you things pertaining to the Opera House, or him, or both, but I would have to have an email address that I could add attachments to.

This was actually called Loveday Opera House after the man who built it (Douglas C. Loveday). He immigrated from Barnstable, Devonshire, England and was born October 15, 1840. The opera house cost 5,000 to build and held 800 people. It looks like it was built around 1899??.
