Ralph Stoodley Loring (1879-1948), known professionally as Ralph Loring, was an architect of Lewiston, Idaho.
Ralph Stoodley Loring was born November 13, 1879, in Somerville, Massachusetts to George Fullington and Sarah Frances (Johnson) Loring. His father was an architect.[1] Loring attended the public schools before entering the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, graduating in 1901 with a degree in civil engineering. He initially worked as a draftsman.
In 1905 he went to Boise, Idaho as superintendent of reconstruction of the United States barracks in that city.[2] In 1906 he went to Lewiston as manager of a branch office for architects John E. Tourtellotte & Company.[3] This office was closed in 1910, and Loring established his own practice in Lewiston. In 1924 he relocated to Pasadena, California, becoming associated with an architecture firm there.[4] He practiced architecture in California for the remainder of his career.
Loring married in 1907 to Linnie Marie Hubbell of Milford, Michigan.[5]
Loring died May 15, 1948, at home in East San Gabriel, California at the age of 68.[6]
