I'm looking for information on Frank Marvin's farm implementbusiness in Greenwich that began in 1905. The obituary of Francis Marion Marvin (1857-1919) says "Shortlyafter marriage he moved with his wife to a farm in Richland Countywhere he lived until he removed to a farm in Huron County in 1901. He lived on this farm until 1905 when he moved to Greenwich andbecame engaged in the implement business which he continued for anumber of years." (I don't know the name of the newspaper.) In the 1910 census he is living on East Main Street in GreenwichVillage and is working as a farm implement dealer (self-employed). I think his house was on lots 310 and/or 311 "in BenjaminKniffin's Addition to west Greenwich, Ohio" based on a 1920 deedfrom his heirs in Huron County Deed Record, volume 109, pages253-254, but I haven't figured out the street address. I don't knowwhether his business was also located there.
Partial success. I've found the 1908 Huron County Directory online at https://archive.org/details/huroncountydirec00unse and found in it their residence and his business location. -----Original Message----- From: vsk03 <vsk03@aol.com> To: ohhuron <ohhuron@rootsweb.com> Cc: vsk03 <vsk03@aol.com>; FrancesVanScoy <FrancesVanScoy@aol.com> Sent: Sat, Jul 9, 2016 11:39 am Subject: Frank Marvin's farm implement dealership in Greenwich 1905 - between 1910 and 1919 I'm looking for information on Frank Marvin's farm implementbusiness in Greenwich that began in 1905.
