201 E. Wheeling St.
There is no video for a peek behind this window, but here are some fun facts from the history of the residence! McClellan & Nannie B. Martens purchased this home in 1893, and their son Raymond was born in 1897. He spent his young years here until the family moved to 149 E. Mulberry in 1912. Sadly, Raymond died Jan. 3, 1913 at only 15 years of age. The names may sound familiar because the family set up an endowment fund of $350,000 in 1949. It is still benefiting senior citizens and children yet today through the Fairfield County Foundation. (writeup by Joyce Harvey)
