Francisco Street is named after Alexander Francisco, who was associated with Lionel Samson & Son. He later conducted a spirit merchant’s business of his own, and held the position of postmaster. He was also on the Fremantle Town Trust in 1848, 1857-63 and again 1865-66. Francisco Street was developed in the late 1890s. In November 1893, South Fremantle Suburban Lot 24 was subdivided and sold by Mrs Charlotte Seubert. Arnot Suebert purchased Lot 14A but it remained vacant for several years. By 1927/28, the owner of Lot 14A (12 Francisco Street) was G Cridland. Fremantle City Council approved the erection of a wood and iron shed on the lot to the value of £50 in that year. The stables were listed in the rate books until 1955. In March 1955, plans were approved for timber framed residence for Norman Redvers Crabbe. Claffey and Roydhouse of Melville built the house for the sum of £2,000. In 1958, Mr Crabbe applied to add a verandah to the house. Norman Crabbe was a waterside worker and raised five children in House, 12 Francisco Street, with his wife Susan Annie. Mr Crabbe died in 1983 and was buried in Fremantle Cemetery. Mrs Crabbe continued to live in the Francisco Street house until 1986.
