My mom was born in this house in 1939. On Portage Road near Cloverdale Road back a long lane. She always talks about how cold it was walking up that lane to get on the school bus and how the bus driver would save her a seat right behind him by the heater! Everything is totally gone now.

Hi Kelly, thanks for sharing your memories of the area! We love hearing personal stories like this connected to our photos. Do you remember any other details about the house or surrounding area? Did you family own this property when the photo was taken? We'd love to hear more of your stories about growing up in rural America. -Alexis
