1913 Sanborn map shows vacant land with a written notation by the Assessor "Orthopedic School Board of Education 2-7-42." Since this site is extremely hilly, it seems odd as a selection for an orthopedic school.

Grand Rapids Press I live in Michigan and as a kid we got a big box of Christmas tags from my dad's WWII nurse, Ruth Crowley of Mass. I knew we had a photo of her son who served in the navy during WWII but just discovered it again and it gave his first name. So I looked him and Ruth up in the SS death index. Don't know if he's the right Donald or Ruth but the age and place fit. From article School History From Heading History and the City of GrandRapids From web site: MyCityofGrandRapids.info |
