Family History
In 1922, Thomas Gaynor and his wife Ruth purchased this home for their family consisting of children, Dorothy, Patricia, James and Jean. Thomas made a good living as a salesman for McCalls Pattern Company, and in 1930 the family owned a radio set and valued their home at $14,000, the equivalent of $238,000 today. Thomas died while visiting his daughter Patricia in Virginia, who in 1956 was married and living in Virginia. Ever the little homemaker, at the age of 14, Patricia submitted the recipe below to the Detroit Free Press in 1936.
