This is the way I grew up spending summer in Morrellville. We are porch and grapevine people. I now have a pavilion in my yard - so I have to add that to. During these hot these months, I am hardly ever in the house. I grew up this way. Playing and staying outside until dark. And if it got too hot - there was always the crick to cool off in.

My Mother's family lived in Morrellville. Mom was always so proud to have been from Morrellville and a Garfield student. She later graduated from JHS Class of 43. She was a trained soprano and accomplished pianist and did most of the accompaniment at JHS. Her name was Sue Vickroy, her parents were David and Mary Vickroy. She had 2 older sisters, Ethel and Rhoda. They lived in several homes in M-ville, but I know at one point they lived on Spring St.

PS. They also lived on Barron Ave. Thanks for posting these great pictures of Morrellville. I love imagining my Mom "just around the corner" from your family.
