(attorney, b 1937), twin daughters Ann & Mary (married George Kipp) and a son Michael (attorney). Mary Gehrig Kipp also has twin daughters, a son George and others. Mary is moving to Milford and is selling the house to her daughter Jennifer and husband Steve Dronsfield. (information from John A. Gehrig who lives in Winter Park FL 2005). Mary Bonita Gehrig was born 3 November 1906 & died 27 December 1983 (aged 77 years), buried 30 December, 1983 in Spring Grove Cemetery, Cincinnati OH
Story 2: John Gehrig (attorney) built the house. He and his wife Bonita had four children: sons John and Michael (also attorneys) and twin daughters Mary and Anne. John Gehrig was the solicitor for Terrace Park for over 20 years, from 1946 until his death in 1967. He helped to procure the World War II cannons that remain on the Village Green today. Mary and her husband George C. Kipp, Jr. bought the house in 1984 following Bonita's death in December 1983. They had five children: sons George and Jeffrey and daughters, Jennifer and twins Susan and Sarah (who were born on their mother's and aunt's birthday, November 22nd). In July of 2005 George and Mary's daughter Jennifer and her husband Steven Dronsfield bought the house and moved in with their daughter, Rachael. (information from Mary Kipp) She also adds how very proud they are that the house has remained in the same family since its building in 1929 and also virtually intact because they love it and Terrace Park as much as we have.
Story 3: Featured on page 1 of the Cincinnati Enquirer, April 27, 1930, when the house was new. It remains in the family (2005). (copy and more material in the house notebook)

From Susan Frank after some enquiries from Mike Gehrig about the Fallout Shelter.  Mike's father, John, was very much involved.

"Mike Gehrig is Jennifer Kipp Donsfield's uncle.  He grew up in TP and his older brother, John, (Harvard class of 50 something) won the Terrace Park Outstanding Alumni award for his work with eye care in Africa and other 3rd world countries.  John lives in Florida but Mike is a Hyde Park resident."  Susan has done an oral history of Mike Gehrig that should be at the Terrace Park Historical Society.
