    Johnston/Gosnell Family house. c. 1970.

    In time, the house passed to the family of Wilmer (“Moke”) Gosnell who had married Esther Johnston. Wilmer Gosnell was to work at the Homestead Mills of US Steel until his retirement in 1969. About that time, the Gosnells sold the house and property to developers who were planning the Ivanhoe Apartments on the site. The old house was torn down and the remains were buried to make way for the apartments.
