Historic Downtown Xenia 8

West Main Street, north and south sides, through historic photos. The hardest hit area of downtown in the April 1974 tornado!

Omg you got a pic of Raceland! My dad co owned that store with a man. Dad’s name was Ronnie Castle and we spent many hours in there! Thanks for posting!

I lived in Xenia in 1974. The tornado was terrible. I lost my house and my 1965 Mustang. Thank God my family and I only had slight injuries. Praise the Lord!!!

Thank you for making these videos. I love learning about my hometown. It's amazing how much Xenia has changed and grown. I never really understood how much of an impact the 1974 tornadoes had on changing Xenia until I saw these. Thank you so much for your efforts!
