Well, we will begin about 1948, with my parents
Dorothy Lorson McKelvey, and Robert D. McKelvey, Sr.
Here Is The First Home Of My Parents And Their Family!
(A Basement In Moffitt Heights, A Suburb of Massillon, Ohio)
My parents bought this lot, and then built the basement portion
with the help of Leo G. Lorson, my mother's father!
Here is The Front View and The Side View of The House!
The Front Was Eventually Leveled Up With The Street.........Here Is A Side View Of The Basement Portion Before Leveled To The Raod
So It Was Built On The Side of This Small Hill
Then, My Dad, Built It Further Up, To Make It Three Stories
Here is Another View Of This Home

The House was sold in 1955
when my parents moved the family to Florida!
Bob's mother, Blanch Jones McKelvey, and
Dorothy's sister, Lucille Smith, also came
to Florida with us!
Later, Lucille moved back to Ohio, and had
this picture taken in 1959.
