I would estimate at least 4 people could live in a native American plank house, depending on its size. The later version of plank house built by the colonists and early Americans would comfortably hold even more. My grandmother's house still stands today and it held a family of 6 (parents and 4 kids). The original structure was 2 rooms on 1st floor and 2 rooms 2nd floor, built late 1800's. When modernized with indoor Plumbing/electrical, an addition was put on, that added 1 more bedroom upstairs and kitchen downstairs. One of the original large upstairs bedrooms was then divided into a small bedroom, bathroom, and walk in closet.

No, the Miwok people did not live in plank houses. They traditionally constructed dome-shaped dwellings made of thatched grass, bark, and other natural materials, which were well-suited to their environment in Northern California. These structures were often temporary or semi-permanent, reflecting their semi-nomadic lifestyle and seasonal resource gathering. Plank houses are more commonly associated with coastal tribes of the Pacific Northwest.

The large house at the center of a manor was called the manor house, and it was a home of the lord of the manor. He could live there with his family. Servants who worked in the manor house often lived in it, in simple rooms. At times, a representative of the lord could live there, and if the lord was in financial need, he could rent it out.
