Winnie Kelley: Reminiscences of Bluemont and “Aunt Freddie” Osburn
In 1962, Winifred (“Winnie”) Osburn Kelley, who grew up in the Bluemont area, was married in the living room of what is now my house, 33718 Snickersville Turnpike, in Bluemont. The house has really not changed much since those days. The picture of the bride coming down the stairs, or the reception in the dining room-living room area, or saying goodbye on the front porch could have been taken yesterday. I visited with Winnie in her home on Yellow Schoolhouse Road, where she lives with her husband William Kelley.
