Hi, Eleanor McCann passed away in March of 2004. Eleanor
was one of the last residents to move from the old
Robert Blvd. She moved in 1964 right before the street
was paved over for I-75. Thanks - icsalum

Thanks for posting the information about Ms. McCann. She was my neighbor when I was a little girl and she also taught me how to play the piano. She always had such interesting stories about Dave Brubeck and Leonard Bernstein. My family used to visit her after we moved away from Dayton, but we lost touch with her. It is sad to hear of her passing. She was a neat lady. Her house was pink on the outside and green on the inside!

Does anyone have a photograph (electronic or hardcopy) of Eleanor McCann? She was my music teacher (piano and organ) from childhood into early adulthood. I am setting up my music room at home and it would be a fitting tribute to have her picture by the piano and organ. She taught me how to play the pipe organ and gave me the opportunity to subsitute for her at the Veterans Administration chapel while she visited family in New England. Please send any information or photographs to mskeans@woh.rr.com. Best regards, MTS

I had an uncle from Zanesville by the name of McCann and wonder if they were related? Anyone know how to find out?

I have a photo of Eleanor McCann you might like. She is with a group of Dayton pianists, many of them teachers (including my mother, Mabel Poland Phillips Berges). I will be scanning it for email. It was taken in the 70's; also shown in the photo: Betty Stewart, Madam Conus, Alverda Fitzgerald, Margaret Senne, and 3 unknowns: 2 women (one named Phyllis), and a man.
I am looking for information and photos of my mother, Mabel Poland Phillips Berges, who concertized and taught piano in Dayton for 50 years. She performed 2-piano concerts in the 60's-70's with Betty Stewart; had a piano performance radio show early last century with my Aunt, Arcelia Stryker Hinton Wilson. I'll be posting a new topic 'Pianists of Dayton' on this site.
