Stories:

Story 1: Harrison Beasley Clancey and Janet Johnson Clancey, married in 1918, met Granville and Margaret Aunt Dick Gooder at the Ft. Mitchell Country Club. The Gooders, having moved to Terrace Park in the early summer of 1919, encouraged the Clanceys to make Terrace Park their home, which they did with their daughter, Elizabeth Libby, in 1921. Harrison, in the brokerage business prior to the war, made his living thereafter in insurance and reading meters in Indian Hill and Terrace Park. He also made battery radios and sold them, thereby acquiring the nickname 'radio' (From an article by Linda Naylor, March 1993, Eastern Hills Journal.) The Clanceys bought property next to the Gooders (725 Yale).
Story 2: Records show the house was built in 1909. I do not know by whom.
Story 3: Picture of Clancey home in the spring of 1923 shows Mother, Aunt Margarite, Cousin Vi, Grandmother Clancey, Uncle Power with Libby, Father and another cousin.
Story 4: Family and school pictures, 1938 TP High School Yearbook, 1929 Kindergarten notebook in archives. Bought for the TP Historical Society for $5 at house auction, March 27, 2004.TP Historical Society at the same time managed to get the plans for the 1932 addition to the house from the lawyer. Now there's a Clancey family notebook in the archives with information and pictures.
Story 5: Elizabeth Libby Clancey was born 7 January 1919 and died 20 March 2007, aged 88 years, buried in St. Thomas Columbarium, Section 7, Niche 210.
