Stories:
Story 1: The original property extended from Marietta to Harold Herrmann's property (615 Myrtle). It was purchased in 1927 by Harry Miller who probably had the house built. Could it have been built then rather than in 1930, or even earlier since Georgia Sullivan (don't know maiden name) told Leslie Jones she remembered walking past it on her way to school? Transfer of the house from Charles to Lilla Collman lasted only 2 weeks.Story 2: Land was sold off for 629 (to Peterson) and 619 (to Duplace) Myrtle.
Story 3: Gladys Green died December 21, 1973. According to records at Spring Grove Cemetery, her husband, James Albert Green, was born in Melbourne, Quebec, Canada in 1862 and died in 1955 from coronary thrombosis.
Story 4: Caroline M. Minor lived here when she was temporarily separated from her husband who was Amy Minor's (810 Princeton) husband's brother.
