Elks Country Club
I loved the story of Lawrence Huber (1893-1958) and his wife Eunice Louise Dougherty (1900-1986). Lawrence had applied for a job at the Elks Country Club. They told him they wanted the incumbent to be married, so he asked his girlfriend Eunice to marry him. She accepted and they married in 1922–and remained married the rest of thier lives.
Huber, under the direction of Donald Ross, helped to construct the Elks Country Club golf course, which was located north of Morse Road and east of High Street to Indianola Road. Huber eventually took 
over the position of groundskeeper when the course opened the following year. Lawrence and Eunice, and their three children, lived in a residence on the Elks Country Club property while Lawrence was employed there. Huber was extremely innovative, and invented equipment as needed to cultivate and care for the greens. (Photo courtesy of Betty Huber)

Seems I remember this as the Wyandot Country Club around 1949. I lived at 3130 Indianola Ave and pedaled my bicycle up past the bus turnaround at Brevoort Rd. and followed the two lane Indianola Ave up to it’s deadend at Rathbone Rd., later called Morse Rd. There was the entrance to the golf club where I could earn 75 cents for a few hours of walking around carrying someone’s golf clubs. The property was turned into the Ohio School for the Deaf around the early or mid 50’s.
