Morning Glory Cyndi Whitfield

John Tyler builds a beautiful house for his new bride in 1919, complete with a resplendent garden of morning glories, her favorite flower. The Tylers plan to raise a large family and spend their lives there.



When circumstances change and the residence must be sold, John has a special request for the new owner, one that becomes an endearing tradition to the beloved home.




Between the years of 1919 and 2019, eight different families and individuals live in the elegant home in Avon Township, now known as Rochester, Michigan. Capturing real-life history of the area, the story also encompasses world events and tells the stories of the people that lived, loved and died on Morning Glory Lane.
