    I have two beautiful family portraits of Gil and Dorothy and their children Justine (my mother) and Dan, probably taken around 1928 in the back yard of their home on Upper Chelsea Road. I would love to include them in this collection if there is interest, and if I could figure out how to do that.
  • UA Archives | Upper Arlington History said:
    Thank you so much, Christina! I've received your two photographs and will add them to our collection. I've also updated the biographical information for Gil Carmack to include Justine and Dan. We truly appreciate your contributions to the collection!! By the way, we also have a lovely description of your grandparents' wedding in the second column on this page: ua-archives.cdmhost.com/u?/p4036coll9,1054

    Also, I'm not sure if you're aware of our Norwester yearbook collection, but your mother appears throughout the yearbooks from 1927-1938. She was described as "joyful" and "charming," was a member of the yearbook's art staff in 1938, and illustrated the front and back flyleaf for the 1938 yearbook. You can view her senior photo here: ua-archives.cdmhost.com/u?/p116001coll1,20475

    I live in a house in Beechwold whose first owner (after the developer) is listed as Gilbert H Carmack and Warren A Armstrong. They look to be owners from Dec 26th 1922 until Nov. 9th 1927. Do you have any information on how this might fit into the Carmack history?
  • Christina Meryl said:
    Gilbert Carmack and Warren Armstrong were real estate partners. Maybe they owned the house as a rental property, or maybe they bought it in order to resell it. Warren Armstrong was also Gilbert's brother-in-law, married to Gil's sister Susan.
