People of Cuyahoga Falls

Handwritten on back of card..."The man driving the horses was Mr. Daton Vogan, who lived on Second Street where the Convent is now (presently the St. Joe's School Broad and Second). Mr. Vogan had a business on Front Street with a Mr. Smith D. Tifft. They sold implements, buggies, etc. Later cars. His daughter, Florence Vogan was our neighbor on Broad Blvd. She died May 29, 1974 at 87 years old and had been a member of Falls Methodist Church for 73 years.

Her Grandfather, Jacob Weidner, had a factory in Cuy. Falls where he made barrels for the Union Army. Saltpork was packed in the barrels for the ARmy. The Weiders were members of the Methodist Church and were active members. Mr. and Mrs. Weidner are buried in Oakwood Cemetery as are Mr. and Mrs. Vogan and Florence.
