I have printed out your note, I love hearing about the old places my relatives lived in. I recently got a chance to go see Radcliff... Well sort of see it. Nothing to see!! Working with this genealogy you kind of get to know a place and have something in mind about it. I am usually disapointed lol ... You pass a road sign and thats IT... I also spent some time pokeing thru the Old Berlin Hotel on a visit last fall......(Jackson Co. Ohio) Low and behold this fall it is GONE... I felt so bad. I did get some great pictures and when I heard it was being torn down I sent my cousin who lives locally out to get me a Berlin Hotel brick! So I have Berlin Hotel wall paper and a brick... Wonder if anyone else cared enough to get a birck?? Wellston did the same thing this year with the Old Wellston Ice House. Makes me sad.. Maybe I am a bit crazy ?? Ya think?? lol Susie
Susie, I don't think you are crazy at all for collecting a brick from the hotel. My mother has one from the Deshler-Wallick Hotel in Columbus, Ohio and if she had known the Ice House in Wellston was being torn down she would have sent me to get a brick or piece of something for her. She grew up in Wellston and I think if she could, she would move back there even though most of her friends are dead now. She is 87 now but still wants to go to see her old house on 6th ave. every time I bring her down.
