Everything in this book is true! This is an event that happened on June 1st, of 1935, and everyone that was involved is gone today. For almost 90 years now the family has asked the question, how could this happen to such a sweet and innocent woman, living in what has always been known as a very safe place to live? Her life on earth was short, and even her family never really knew her full story. She was adopted at birth. She found out she was adopted as a young teenager after her adopted mother took her to see a woman at the Toledo State Hospital. She was first described as her aunt, and then she was told the truth, that it was her real mother. She marries at 16 years old, with her adopted mother giving the consent. She and her husband live an ordinary life, in the rural community known as Sylvania Township in Lucas County, Ohio, with all the struggles that the Depression years brought. They had ten children, and after her husband passed away she had to take a night job to eek out a living. That job required her to walk approximately four and a half miles to and from work. One night she didn’t make it home. The county sheriff, coroner and prosecutor all agreed it wasn’t an accident, and that’s when the investigation began. Who did this to this sweet woman who was needed so badly at home? Will we ever find out the truth?

Join the author in reliving Sylvania's over 180 years of history from footpaths to expressways and beyond, in volume three of an eight volume set. With 30 years of research she has included every subject imaginable that helped bring Sylvania to where they are today, with excellent schools, over-the-top parks and recreation, rich beautiful homes, commercial and industrial businesses and a quaint historical dowtown that looks like it was planned by Norman Rockwell himself. This book is a treasure trove of information for the thousands who have ancestors that once lived and helped Sylvania grow through these years. Located in northwestern Ohio, Sylvania is a suburb of Toledo, Ohio and for many years has been known as "the fastest growing suburb in Lucas County." A once rural farm community, between both the city and township they have grown from a combined 2,220 residents in 1910, to 48,487 in 2010. Over a short period of time the land has transformed into beautiful subdivisions of grand houses, so that now their subdivision names are all that remain to remind them of their once dense forests and sprawling farmlands. No longer can Sylvania be called the "bedroom community" of Toledo, because over the last 50 years they have done a lot more than sleep.

"Altogether superb: an accessible, fluent account that advances scholarship while building a worthy memorial to the victims of two and a half centuries past." —Kirkus Reviews (starred review) In 1755, New England troops embarked on a "great and noble scheme" to expel 18,000 French-speaking Acadians ("the neutral French") from Nova Scotia, killing thousands, separating innumerable families, and driving many into forests where they waged a desperate guerrilla resistance. The right of neutrality; to live in peace from the imperial wars waged between France and England; had been one of the founding values of Acadia; its settlers traded and intermarried freely with native Mikmaq Indians and English Protestants alike. But the Acadians' refusal to swear unconditional allegiance to the British Crown in the mid-eighteenth century gave New Englanders, who had long coveted Nova Scotia's fertile farmland, pretense enough to launch a campaign of ethnic cleansing on a massive scale. John Mack Faragher draws on original research to weave 150 years of history into a gripping narrative of both the civilization of Acadia and the British plot to destroy it.
