The Correct address of Castle Theater was 3 North Clay Street – Millersburg Ohio. I lived in the Theater’s upstairs apartment with my husband – Don De Hass. The 1st movie shown there in 1961 was “Gone With The Wind”. I sold tickets & popcorn. Don also held boxing matches there with the aide of Sammy Ingot(of Canton OH), Light Weight World Champ 1940’s.Don’s Band “The Cliche’s” was the 1st band to record “Hang On Sloopy” in Cincinnati OH 2 weeks before the McCoy’s (Cincinnati)used the Cliche’s style of arrangement to make it the Rock & Roll Song of Ohio. Don died at age 35 of a heart attack at the Theater – August 1, 1977. Joan DeHass
