The Great Dayton Flood occurred in March 1913. It's still the greatest natural in Ohio history. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Dayton_Flood

We'll add March 1913 to the source data. Thanks!

My mother's parents and grandparents were rescued by boat, they lived on Dekalb Street right by the river. This is not them, but I can feel connected as they were saved the same way and lived to give birth to her.

The Self-Master Colony was a shelter for homeless men in Union NJ, opened 1908 in the Hoyt family mansion. The building is now apparently used by the Girl Scouts.

Incredible how people back then could suck up their misfortune and keep on. But I guess they didn't have a lot of choice...
