Photo 17-LLA-9

The center of this photo is actually 322 E Belvidere Rd in Grayslake, Il. This is between Seymour and Westerfield (not the lace indicated on the map). And I know this because the two center buildings belonged to my family. The white building is my grandparent's home, and the building directly west is Jim's TV... the family tv business.

Rowling brothers who had a cattle hauling business .They were in the house west(left)of JimsTV .across RT 120 was the St Gilberts church parking lot.you can see the two basketball courts

My parents bought our first color TV from the store in this picture in the late 60s.

Hi Jim C! It's fascinating to hear about your family's purchase of a color TV from that store in the late 60s. We'd love to hear more about your memories of Lake County during that time. Were there any other notable stores or landmarks in the area? How has the landscape changed since then? Feel free to share any other recollections you may have.
