Mrs. Smith desribes her life in Euclid in this taping on December 14, 1982. She was born in 1893 in her home on Euclid Avenue near Chardon. Her parents ran the post office and general store on that corner. When she was 4 years old, her parents moved to a farm on Chardon Road, but only for a while when they moved to Bliss (East 222) to live with her uncle's family when her mother was sick. Around 1910, the family settled in the Noble area where her mother ran the post office. She recalled people came to spend their summers in Euclid. Grapes were the most popular business while she was growing up and she remembered the basket company on East 222 near Euclid. Her father was the first treasurer of Euclid Village and also served as the first sewer inspector. She remembered when Charlie Eli ran as mayor he promised to do away with all railroad crossings to improve traffic. (18 minutes)
