In 1911, Juno Robeson, a social worker who had moved to Cleveland from Paducah, Kentucky, opened her Inn for Business Women in the Sarah Bousfield House. Having purchased the property in the summer of 1910, Robeson may have made alterations to the interior of the house in 1910-1911 to allow access between the two sides of the former two-family house. In any event, according to Cleveland directories and newspaper advertisements, the house appears to have had a single address and was no longer treated as a two-family house by 1915.
