Abstract

Vince, Gloria and Richard are siblings from the Delgado family, a Mexican-American family that lived on near Rockside Road and the Willow Station. Their father, Edward (Erasto) Delgado and Epimenia (Anna) Delgado were there parents. Their family fled the Mexican Revolution and settled in the Cuyahoga Valley in the early 1900s. Vince worked on the railroad with his father Edward in high school during World War II. In this oral history, the siblings discuss their childhoods in the Cuyahoga Valley, Vince's work on the railroad, their parents, Richard and Gloria's hobbies and how wildlife near the Cuyahoga River has changed across the years.
