1. Thank you for posting this. My great-grand parents settled in Northwood.
Farmed there for many years.

There used to be a wonderful ancient old church there.

Good people and I am very sorry to hear of the terrible loss.

6. Wow, what devastation
Houses, grain elevators, the fire house, railways cars, warehouses...

And the damage is so specific, houses that are demolished are right next to seemingly untouched houses.

Terrible.
