-Formerly the house of Richard Creelman, an early settler of
Georgetown and owner of Creelman Bros., a company that
produced world renowned knitting machines that put Georgetown ,on the map
-just a few memories here
-Lots of memories there too 25 years ago! ❤️
-We lived there for a few years, shared that nice big shady yard with a couple of neighbors,(Marty & Donna Dezeeuw)& Howard & Phee Fendley)who owned the corner store. Miss those days.
-I remember playing in big piles of leaves and dad building us an ice rink one winter. And the Davis family upstairs and the Young boys behind us so about 10 kids all under that one roof! Soccer games in the back and playing in the fields behind.
-You had the most beautiful lilac trees behind there. I remember like it was yesterday.
-there’s still some there 😊
-I lived down the street played at that house , great memories !
-I worked there when Mr.& Mrs. Austin had it as a nursing home in the 60’s
-wow.. I didn't know that
-Georgetown can be proud of this type of architecture
-Love the architecture.
-One of the vendors I met at the downtown market has one of the original machines.
-And my home for many years. We lived in the apartment to the left. Spent many hours riding our bikes up and down Carruthers Road, playing in the lilac bushes by the railroad tracks behind the factory next door. Do you remember
-Wow, I didn't know that either.
-Walked by that house on a daily basis. Love it
-Wow that was my first home when I was born 0-4 yrs!
-Lovely Old Home. Hope it is Safe from the wrecking ball.
-I think it was made into apartments beautiful old home
-When we lived there, there were three apartments I think but it's been remodelled since.
-There are 6 units now
-Apparently what was my kitchen only was made into a bachelor apartment.
-I remember a family lived there at one time MacDonald's they had 4 or 5 children. They also lived on Rexway Drive.
-Always loved that house
-Had a place there with my mom . Along time ago
-I wonder at what point the addition on the back was added.
-Wow. That is an amazing photo.
-I can't find very much info on the house.. There's lots about the business and where it once was though
-There’s a Creelman Hall at the University of Guelph. Wonder if it’s the same family?!
-Could be .. Apparently the 2 Brothers that started the knitting company here were born in Grey Bruce county as was George whom the hall at Guelph U is named after
-interesting! I haven’t found a definite answer yet but you’d think there has to be some relationship. All pretty successful men with the same name in close geographical proximity.
-I know that it was once a nursing home & i wasn't thrilled to find out that my moms uncle died in what was my living room.lol
-I work there in early 60’s what was your uncle’s name or was it before that or after 1964
-I don’t recall the name but it’s been a long time might have been before I started there
-I lived there around 1970 I think, apartment on the right
