This grew out of my Down Da Road I Go Blog which now has become primarily what I'm doing and music. I was getting so much history in it, I spun this one off and now have World War II and War of 1812 blogs which came off this one. The Blog List below right has all the way too many blogs that I write.

Fire at the Glidden Home in 1943
From the September 19, 2018, MidWeek "Looking Back."
1943, 75 Years Ago.
"Fire which broke out just before 9:00 o'clock did considerable damage to the Glidden home on West Lincoln Highway.
"The blaze, which was caused by a spark in the chimney, had obtained a good start when the fire trucks arrived but was soon brought under control and damage was held to a minimum."
