Re: [MBZ] Nostalgia redux
Same for us, our house (built in 1938) is often referred to as "The Renee Healy house" after the original builder/owner. My parents first house was the same but I can't remember the guy's name. -Curt On Sunday, December 3, 2017, 2:42:15 PM EST, Kaleb C. Striplin via Mercedes wrote: It’s also done around here somewhat.

Re: [MBZ] Nostalgia redux
It’s also done around here somewhat. Or was in the old days. My great grandparents place back in the day was called Green Acres. This was used sometimes here with larger more prominent properties.
