Photo 100-MPR-33

Comments

This should be labeled 100-MPR-31 and the flight path should maybe be shifted north. This is a view of Google Maps 1370 E. Holtzmuller Rd., looking West along Holtzmuller Rd. That's Marshall Rd. on the right side of the photo just before the old bridge over Twin Creek. This was where my grandparents, Milton P. and Iris G. Chellis retired and where I spent many happy visits exploring the creek with my siblings. My grandparents were living there when this photo was taken, and the open white door on the barn is a dry-walled enclosure for their car. Perhaps they are leaving and just entered there.

This was known as the Priddy place, after the earlier owners, by my grandfather Milton Pride Chellis and grandmother Iris Gale (Smith) Chellis. They lived here about ten years, after selling the family farm, from about 1956 to about 1966.
