Vermilion Ohio, A Good Place to Live
SHOPTALK: The photo on the shop desk this week is that of my mother. She is pictured standing on the walk just a few steps north of our old family home on the west side of Perry Street near what were then the New York Central railroad tracks. I don’t know who was in her baby buggy. What I do know is that it was one of eight children born to her and my father.
Mom was born in the apartment above my grandparents print shop on Grand Street (now the history museum) the 24th day of May in 1906. She had one sibling, a sister, Alice. Alice was also born in the apartment above the rolling printing presses on the first day of December in 1911. Mom graduated from Vermilion High School in 1924 and married, my father William Basil Tarrant, on 11 June in 1927.
My father was born in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada; grew up in Portland Maine; and came to Vermilion following WW1. His uncle, the Reverend Howard C. Lynch, was the minister of Vermilion’s First Congregational Church at that time. Dad, who was on his way to hunt “gators” in Texas stopped off in Vermilion to visit his uncle. Because, as a young man he had worked in the printing business in Portland it was natural for him to wander over the print shop just behind the church (now Millet’s Auction House) to inspect the place. Suddenly gator hunting was put on the back-burner. He never left town.
But back to my mother: She was a very good student (I have a copy of her high school courses and grades), but she was an even better musician. She really and truly wanted to enter the Conservatory of Music at Oberlin College. Unfortunately, it was not in the proverbial stars or, more importantly, what my grandparents wanted for her. Even as a young person she had proven her skills at writing and bookkeeping. In short, her parents wanted her to be a business person – one who would and could run their newspaper and printing business when they were gone. Ergo, she enrolled an attended the Sandusky Business College
A brief historical sketch of that college reads in part: “Distinctively a pioneer in commercial education…the school has served the needs of the business community. Its former students dominate the leading business and financial interests of Sandusky. Hundreds of them are engaged in business pursuits in our sister cities of Ohio.” My mother was, of course one those former students.
And, yes, mom did come to successfully operate he parent’s business when they both passed away in 1946. And while it was a demanding business, she still found time to keep house, raise a big family, be an active member of the local chapter of Eastern Star, the Business and Professional Women’s group, the American Legion and Veterans of Foreign Wars auxillary groups and, believe or not, pursue her musical interests. For many years she played the organ on Sundays at both the Congregational and Catholic churches. She was, as is obvious, a busy person.
On June 21st in 1963 she was stricken and died of a massive stroke. She had just turned 57. What I have failed to say about her was that she was a hellacious driver. She had a 1956 Pontiac and loved to drive (fast). Aside from writing (history) she had an odd hobby. On Sunday afternoons she, along with her friend Ruth Duperow, like to drive around Ohio to various cemeteries searching for unusual epitaths. She didn’t drink, but smoked like a chimney – and she liked to watch professional wrestling on Saturday afternoons. She loved her kids and her grandkids. And perhaps she liked nothing better than the times when she’d play the piano and we’d all gather around and sing. After her death it was unusually quiet around the house. The singing was done.
On my home desk this week is a continuation of the first pic. It’s the first four Tarrant children with their dog in the yard – on the south side of the family home – on Perry Street. The three boys (and the dog) are gone, but sister Nancy is still hale and hearty.
I am somewhat amused by this pic because of the pained look on my brother Bud’s (Phil’s) face. I note that Nancy is holding his hand as well as that of my brother Al’s. It may very well be that he didn’t appreciate it.
And Albert’s such a chubby little guy – so different from the way I came to know him. During most of my conscious lifetime he was rather thin. He was three years old in this pic. Their dog appears to be friendly.
My brother Bill is the oldest and looks very happy. Brother Phil very likely wanted to be doing something other than standing in the yard for a portrait. Standing still was not his forte.
I sincerely like / liked all my siblings. There are only three of us left. And I miss those who have gone ahead. Someday…
CHANGES: I acquired a new computer. I knew that I would have some software difficulties because of the change – and I did. It has taken me all week to deal with those changes. I had to add new software just to keep abreast of what I had. Not all things were transferable. This meant that I needed passwords for everything. So…Yikes – what a headache.
But on the positive side I discovered that much of the work I do at the museum and home automatically appears on either computer. Thus, if I’m not done working on a project in one place, I can work on it in the other. I find that amazing. It’s a true benefit of “Cloud” computing.
The changes in tech matters boggles my mind. The only thing I don’t like about all of these things are the phones. I didn’t like them before, and I don’t like them now. I find it odd that for years people wanted everything on “big screens” – the bigger the better. Now many people are marveling at tiny screens.
Go figure.
Historically,
A DAY AT THE BEACH: As one can see I acquired this photo recently from Vermilionite Phyllis Heyman Rogers. One of the girls was her grandmother. I really, really like this pic – they were young, beautiful and having fun at Vermilion's Main Street Beach. Just the girls.
Unfortunately, I can’t give ye specific names – with some exceptions. The youngest is Mary Jayne Ries-Bard. She was the daughter of the lady right next to her (on the left), Harriet “Hattie” Anthony Whitmore-Ries. Mary Jayne was born in 1914. She appears to be about five years old in this pic – so I’m guessing that this pic was taken during the summer of 1919 or ’20.
The other girls would be Hattie’s sisters: Alice, Zenobia and Esther. Originally there were six girls in their family. The oldest, Abbie, was born sometime in 1874. She apparently died before the Whitmore family moved to Vermilion in the latter years of the 19th century. Another sister, Elizabeth “Lizzie” passed on 16 April in 1904. At the time she intended to be married to a Vermilion fella named Fred Krapp on Easter. But experienced severe complications from La Grippe (we commonly know it as the flu) and died. She was only 22.
The girls also had 2 brothers: Robert M. (b. 1876) and Edwin George Whitmore (b. 1884). Robert was the guy who started the weekly known as The Vermilion News around 1897. For whatever reason he didn’t want to continue with the business for long, so he called on his father, George, to take over the operation around 1898 and the entire family moved to Vermilion from Greensprings, Ohio. Around 1900 my grandparents - newlyweds, Pearl and Elizabeth “Bessie” Roscoe purchased the business.
After leaving Vermilion Robert went to Cleveland and went into the hardwood floor business. He died in 1937. Edwin went to Toledo and worked for the railroad. He died in 1974.
But getting back to the pic: Just for a day the girls had fun at the beach.
THE CHIEF: During my lifetime in Vermilion I have know several a good many of Vermilion's Volunteer firemen (my big brother Bill and brother-in-law Dave Wilkes among them) - but I've only really known one or two fire chiefs. I knew Gene Kropf and I knew John Fischer. But I never knew "Dad" Tischer, and I really didn't hear about Roy Hurlbut until a few years ago.
The interesting things about Mr. Hurlbut is that he was chief of the department for 13 years and he had lived in Vermilion for 54 years (on Exchange and Ohio streets). I guess that only goes to show how much I don't know about my hometown.
Roy Hurlbut was born in Amherst, Ohio on August 3, 1880. Growing up there I don’t believe (and this is my opinion) that his life was a bed of roses. The year 1900 found him and his mother, Ellen, servants in the home of George and Annie Quigley. George Sr. was a farmer, and his son, also George, was a doctor. [I don't know if this Quigley family was related to the Vermilion Quigleys. Reber Quigley was one of the towns old time doctors.]
In any case by the year 1910 Roy was living in Vermilion, and he and his wife, Lizzie, had two daughters - Blanche (4) and Norma (3). He was employed as a fisherman. By 1920 he had worked himself up to become the foreman at the fish house. [I’m guessing here that he was working for Kishman.]
He must have changed occupations sometime during the 1930s because he also worked as a motorman for the Lake Shore Electric Railway company for a number of years. When the L.S.E. ceased operations around 1938 he eventually went to work for the F.W. Wakefield Company, and stayed there 11 years before retiring in 1955.
Roy was a Vermilion Volunteer fireman for many years before becoming chief in 1940 when long time chief (44 years) "Dad" Tischer retired at the age of 80. Roy retired from the fire department in 1953 Among other things he was also a trustee of Maplegrove cemetery, a member of the Fish and Game Association, Woodmen of the World (an old organization), and the E&R church when it was still part of the United Church of Christ.
Chief Hurlbut died on March 25, 1958 while visiting his daughter Norma Huene on Indian Hollow Road in Elyria. I found this old snap of him while going through a box of old pix at the print shop. Fortunately someone had identified him on the back of it. The pic was taken on Ohio Street very near the corner of Division / Main Street during the very late 1940s or early 1950s. It was probably during a Memorial Day parade – when firemen walked in the parades.
YESTERYEAR'S NEWS: The following clips are dictated transcriptions from past issues of The Vermilion News. I think you will find them both interesting and fun...
Owing to the protracted illness of Mr. J. A. Sprunger, the founder of the Children’s Rescue Society at Birmingham, it became necessary that he should be relieved of the responsibility of management. He started the society at Burne, Ind., about 17 years ago, and brought it to its present location seven years later. Since coming to Ohio, Mr. Sprunger has given almost his entire time, energy and money to the promotion of the orphanage and the help of homeless children.
Three years ago Mr. Sprunger’s health failed and he has been poorly ever since until the last year when he has been in bed most of the time. Mrs. Sprunger tried to carry the load but it has been too much for her with a great care of her sick husband. Naturally the work of the institution must suffer without other help, and the reorganizing this, sent to Cleveland to enlist the cooperation of some interested in the Cleveland Bible Institute and Training School.
After some deliberation it was decided that the two institutions could work in harmony for the advancement of both, and on August First the trustees of both boards were combined into one. The Cleveland Bible Institute & Training School is a good school that prepares ministers missionaries and all kinds of Christian workers.
It is believed many of the students can be much of much help to the home as well as receive practical training by being with the children in vacations and other times and probably many will enter the work permanently. It may also be possible for the older children to take higher education in the Cleveland schools by living with the Bible Institute.
Also, the home receives the help of the trustees of the Cleveland Bible school, from which a subcommittee has been appointed to look particularly after the orphanage. Those appointed are: J. W. Malone of the Malone Stone Co., also pastor of the First Friends Church of Cleveland, together with Mrs. Malone; J. K. Russell, Supt of the Lake Shore R.R., and Mrs. Elizabeth Ward of Columbus, Ohio.
One of the first things to be done was the appointment of a business manager and J. W. Malone, Jr., has recently come to take charge in such a capacity. He is a young man and a graduate of Western Reserve University, and for two years has been assistant manager of the Williamson Co., a Cleveland Corporation.
[NOTE: This, of course, refers to the orphanage many people currently call the “Gore Orphanage” that was located in and around Swift’s Hollow. It was also the beginning of the end of the place.]
Robert Marcha, age 27, of Old Fort was drowned in the Vermilion River, at the Olympic club grounds, Sunday morning while bathing. According to the story of one of the men who witnessed the tragedy, Marcha had been swimming across the river and was near the bank on his return trip when he sank from site. They thought he had done so purposely but upon his nonappearance search was begun and his body recovered. After a physician had worked over him for some time, he was brought to Vermilion by undertaker Beeckel and the arrival of Coroner Miller of Lorain County awaited. He investigated the case. At first it was not known who the man was as he came to the club grounds with a shopmate. Later it was found that he was employed in a book bindery in Cleveland. His father J. J. Marcha of Old Fort came for the body.
A friend and former neighbor called upon Mrs. C. Schindler the latter part of the week found her bed ridden and in a serious condition. It was ascertained that she had been sick some eight weeks or more and it is claimed she had not received proper care and medical treatment. The friend decided that a physician be called and finally took the responsibility calling the doctor. She also notified humane officer, Lawless of the case and he in turn sent word to Mrs. Everett the county officer who came down to investigate. Sunday both visited the Schindler home and found conditions such as to warrant the removal of Mrs. Schindler to a hospital which was done Monday. The lady’s condition was such at the time of removal that it was thought she would not survive. Her death occurred at St. Joseph’s Hospital, Lorain, Wednesday evening. It is not known up-to-date whether any further investigation of the case will be made but circumstances seem to warrant it.
It is alleged that Mrs. Schindler was considerable past 60 years of age, was not provided with the comforts of life and had no medical care and insufficient food in care such as a person of her age should have had. The husband is apparently able to provide well and it is claimed that he has sufficient property to warrant the procuring of the necessary care for a sick wife.
The enormity of such an offense against the wife as the failure to provide as alleged in this case cannot fully be realized and we believe a full investigation of this case should be made and if punishment is due it should be meted out full measure in full measure.
A suit to quiet quit title on the peninsula of the resort grounds was instituted in the Court of Common Pleas by attorneys King & Ramsey on behalf of the Cedar Point resort company, against Henry and Christine Bruns, proprietors of Rye Beach, a resort near Huron on the Lake Shore.

Kidnapping his two children, Ruth aged five, and Hubert, aged eight, and taking them in a buggy from South Amherst of Brownhelm, in Lorain County, came near to getting Charles M. Hahn, farmer, into serious trouble with the common pleas court, Monday morning.
Taken into custody by Sheriff Reuter at Brownhelm Sunday afternoon Hahn was arraigned before Judge Reed on a charge of contempt of court. Judge Reed some time ago, gave the custody of the children to their grandmother, Mrs. Josephine Cummins, of South Amherst, after the husband had been refused a divorce.
Hahn was held Monday morning by Sheriff Reuter until the children were returned to the grandmother.
“If your sister at Brownhelm does not bring the little ones back today she will also be cited for contempt of court”, Judge Reed declared.
According to the accounts which reached the ear of the court, Hahn met the children going home from church, spirited them away, and refused to surrender possession when this was asked by Mrs. Cummins.
“I have given you plenty of chances to have the children for several days at a time,” said Judge Reed at the hearing. He intimated that if this occurred again, heavy punishment would be inflicted.

…ran was constantly watched, as he was known to have come from Kentucky. False reports were circulated concerning him, and he was, for a long time, believed to be an emissary of the secessionists, but before leaving the place people became fully satisfied of his loyalty and integrity. After residing at La Fayette for about a year Mr. Curran returned to Ohio and became superintendent of the public schools of Middletown, where he remained for three years, but then went to Glendale and became principal of the academy at that place. Again after another three years had elapsed, he established what proved to be a very successful school at Cincinnati, for the preparation of young men for Harvard and Yale Colleges.
It was during his residence at Cincinnati that Mr. Curran read law under the direction of Major L. M. Hosea, a leading attorney of that city. This study was supplemented by a course in the law department of the Cincinnati University, after which, in 1872, he was admitted to practice in the courts of the State. Soon after this he came to Sandusky and accepted the position of superintendent of the public schools, which he held for eight years, but on account of the adoption of certain books to be used in the schools, a heated and bitter controversy was created, during which our subject resigned his position. In 1844 the law partnership of Plinney & Curran was formed.
[NOTE: I don’t, as a habit, make note in these passages, but I do read them as I work. I believe that the aforementioned partnership of Plinney & Curran was more like established in 1884 – not 1844.]
Horatio N. Shipman was born in the town of Essex, Chittenden county, Vt., on the 3d of June, 1829. When he was less than four years of age his parents left Vermont and came to Trumbull county, O.
The early education of young Shipman was obtained at the district schools of the vicinity in which his parents lived, and on account of the need of his service on the farm, his study was limited to a small part of the year. At the age of twenty-five he commenced reading law with Charles A. Harring, of Trumbull county, but he was soon obliged to withdraw from the office as he had not sufficient means to maintain himself. He then returned to farm work and devoted his leisure time to the study of Blackstone, Kent and Greenley, having purchased the books for the purpose of qualifying himself for the legal profession. In August, 1854, he came to Berlinville, Erie county, and engaged in teaching school for a number of terms, but in the fall of 1857, he went to Norwalk, where he became a student in the office of T. R. Strong. In June, 1857, he was admitted to the bar and located for practice at Milan, in this county.
In the fall of 1861 Mr. Shipman recruited Company C, of the Fifty-fifth Ohio Infantry, and was made its captain. He served for about two years. With the exception of this time he has been in constant practice at Milan.
Hon. James L. De Witt, one of the present judges of the Common Pleas Court of this subdivision, was born in Perkins township, in this county, on the 20th of September, 1848. He was educated at the district schools of Perkins, and at the age of nineteen became a student at the Buckeye Commercial College, at Sandusky, where he remained one winter. At twenty he attended…

Young Jock McTavish from Glasgow went to study at a university in England and was living in the hall of residence. After a week his mother rang him.
"How do you get along with the other students, Jock?" she asked.
"Well," he replied, "they are terribly noisy people. The one on one side keeps banging his head on the wall. The one on the other side screams all night."
"Oh Jock!" said his mother. "How do you manage to put up with such noisy neighbours?"
"I don't do anything. I just stand here quietly, playing my bagpipes!"
