Both parents came from Ohio to Michigan where Russell worked as an electrician. After living at 12282 Appoline they had a house in 1940 at 19342 Five Points on the Redford side of the street, not far from Hugh Weber’s house; did they know each other? Five Points got its name from its intersection with Grand River Ave and Seven Mile Rd – 5 points created. Still a confusing intersection when you try to make a turn.
