Photo 1-DLO-13

Comments

SW corner of Rt 58 and West Hamilton St (headed towards the upper left corner), Oberlin. The street at the top is South Professor St. The house is still there.

Here is a write-up of this house, which could be as old as 150 years. Currently owned by Doyle Jones, who was fire chief at one time. Oberlin's fire station in now located across the street heading north. The house there at this time was the American Legion. The ball park field in the back is still there but is now a community garden.
Barn is gone now, like the house directly across from it. I had forgotten the little round shed in the back of Doyle's yard until seeing this picture......
