Hi Carole, Thank you VERY much for posting the pictures of Dillonvale, Adena and Mt. Pleasant, OH. My ancestors have lived in each of the three towns. I especially appreciate the pictures of Adena since that is where I was born and spent most of my childhood until my mid-teens. I recognize several of the pictures and have memories of some of the places that were still there when I was a child. My grandmother always bought her "chicken feed" at the old mill and used to use the cloth of the colorful sacks it came in for her dresses and aprons. I still remember the musty smell of the building that was located near the railroad tracks. Although I was not yet born when the picture of the flood was taken, I do remember numerous floods that used to come almost to our front door and almost always took the foot bridges that we had to use to cross the creek -- "crick" -- to get to our homes. I plan to visit the site to check for more detail in the pictures and for any new ones that you post from time to time. My family surnames were Durbin and Ainscough. Thanks again, Ed Durbin (now living in southwestern NY State) Carole Dutton Malisiak wrote: > > Dillonvale, OH; Mt.

Hi Ed, I am glad that you enjoyed the photos as much as I did, but I did not "post" them to the internet, I just found them there using a search engine. WoW! What a find! I grew up in Dillonvale, my Dad grew up in Mt. Pleasant, and my mom grew up near Smithfield.
