Grandpa is reasonably well documented. I did reach out to my aunt Faye for some details here and there.

But, she was born 20 May 1969, to Arvid Ferrell and Anna Craig in Middletown, OH.


Family

Arvid and Anna Ferrell
Anna was the youngest daughter, and the third born child of William L. Craig and Lucinda "Lou" DeRossett. Born in August of 1902, in Sudith, Menifee County, KY, her mom died when she was only 11 years old, with her father remarrying Armedia "Meda" Smith/Trent the following year.

She was diabetic later in life, and had trouble with her feet and neuropathy, eventually losing a leg at the knee in 1963, and dying the next year. This illness led to her son Jerry staying home and caring for her until her death.

I found a copy of the permission slip that William Craig (a local retail shop owner) gave to the JP to allow them to get a marriage bond.[1]. The marriage bond is in Sudith, KY, and lists Arvid as a farmer from Mingo, WV, and Anna as being from Menifee, KY, and shows her mother "Lou" as being deceased by now (24 May 1924 marriage), but is witnessed by her father Williams new wife "Meda" Craig[2]. Lucinda "Lou" DeRossett, William's first wife had died at 32 years old 6 Jun 1913 according to her gravestone[3], she was present in the 1910 Census (May 2 1910) but died in June 1910. By 28 November 1911 William had remarried[4] to Almediea "Meda" Smith/Trent.

Education

I have not found any information on Anna's education.

Occupation

I'm not aware of any employment Anna might have had.

Timeline

[[Image:|1350px|Anna's timeline]]
Anna's timeline

Previous Addresses

I see no evidence of Arvid and Anna's Family in Middletown before 1928 (I have not found a 1927 Directory). We know that Elliott was born in Menifee County, KY, in 1925, so this makes sense (and his birth certificate says they lived in Sudith, but no City Directory exists for Menifee). Interestingly we see they live in 3 different addresses on Fleming street (2 before Jerry is born), as well as Ellwood and Elmsere in Middletown. Anna moves to Elmsmere with Arvid by 1944 and stays there until her death in 1964. Jerry shows up as working at Reedy's by 1958 (19 years old, and Larry has been there sine 1953), but has moved to the Marsh Foodliner by 1960, the last year a City Directory is available online.

As you can see from the below, the family lived at three addresses on Fleming Road. That portion of Fleming no longer exists, having been consumed by the construction of Reinartz Boulevard, a major thoroughfare today, that runs along much of the same ground. These houses in the 1,900 block were near the Gardner paper box company where Arivd worked. The other addresses, on Ellwood and Elsmere, are a couple miles east of the plant. The 1900 Block started at about Grimes to Charles Street right at the plant (ED 9-63 in 1950, but 1930 EDs 9-35, 9-36, 9-37).

The 1930 Census entry for Arvid and Anna has been elusive, it appears the odd 1900 block houses (north side) should be in district 36, but I can't seem to find them or their neighbors (and neither did Family Search).

701 Elsmere Street.jpeg

701 Elsmere St
Middletown, OH 45042
~1944-1964
One of Anna and Arvid's homes. The Middletown City Directory for '43 is missing, but by 1944 it puts them at Elsmere, where they stay until Anna's death in 1964.


Farm Location.png
Farm... address in doubt

Camden/Gratis, OH 45042
~1941-1943
One of Anna and Arvid's homes, Fay says that about the time of the war (World War II, so 1939-1941, she wasn't sure exactly, but Middletown City Directory says they were here in 1942) the family moved to a farm outside of Middletown in Gratis for about 2.5 years. She says it was about 7 acres of farmland, but wasn't enough to make s living off so Arvid still worked "in town". She also said that Elliott had just graduated, so that would make it about 1941 or '42. The 1940 Middletown City Directory puts them at Fleming, but by '42 they're here.

1914 Fleming Road
Middletown, Oh, 45044
1935-1940
The City Directory shows them in 1914 Fleming in 1935, the third house on this street, and they are still here in the 1940 directory. Then they're in Camden/Gratis on the farm by 1942, but back in town on Elsmere by 1944.

808 Elwood Road
Middletown, Oh, 45044
1933-1935
The City Directory shows them in 808 Elwood in 1933 and are still here in the '35 directory.

1919 Fleming Road
Middletown, Oh, 45044
1930-1933
The City Directory shows them in 1914 Fleming in 1930. In 1935 they're on Ellwood, but I don't have the '31 or '32 directories.

1920 Fleming Road
Middletown, Oh, 45044
1928-1930
Anna and Arvid's original homestead in Middletown. They moved here shortly after Elliott was born and lived in the neighborhood for a few years before moving to Camden/Gratis. From talking to Fay, she says there were only 2 bedrooms and 7 kids. It was a "shotgun" style house, with living room then the dining room right in front of the front door, with bedrooms off to the right, and the kitchen was built into what had been a back porch. The 1940 Middletown City Directory puts them at Fleming, 1941 is unavailable.
