In what was the dining room...........my grandparents had a new bookstore...........which they called Gingerbread Square books....................the entire property was Gingerbread Square.......it had a small mall behind it.............that extended to Baltimore ave..................and was 2 stores................

According to Jessie Pauline Barker...........Ruddell......her married name.........my maternal grandmother.............this was the 2nd oldest home in Rehoboth Beach...................but it didn't have central heat or air conditioning........it dates back to like 1860 or something...........we lived on Bayard ave.........901 Bayard ave.......in a Chinese house..........they tore it down......it was at the corner of Bayard and Rodney ave..................2 blocks from Atlantic Ocean...........my mother married Richard L Herbert in the early 1980s.......like 1983 or so................and Dave and I moved to Dale city, Virginia..........
