677. Floyd Earl Deloe
Earl was born September 26. in Wigg Hill, PA. Later, with his brothers and parents, he moved to Dunkirk, NY. He worked in his early years with his father. Although he did attend school, he only completed the tenth grade. As a boy, he loved boats and he and his brothers always had one. Earl told of sailing a canoe from Dunkirk to Erie.
In 1912 he was in Orlando, FL, where he was working as a draftsman in an architects office. While in this office he was given the job of supervising the construction of a school in Feldsmere, Fl.,, the plans which he had drawn at the architects office in Orlando. Earl wrote to his parents, Cal and Ida, that Feldsmere would be a great place for them to live, thus the Feldsmere connection. When World War one started, Earl returned to Dunkirk, and went to Buffalo to enlist in the Navy. He served his enlistment in Paris working as a draftsman. After the war, he served on the U. S. Lexington, a converted coal ship which was America's first Air Craft Carrier.
When discharged, Earl returned to Dunkirk, and married Geraldine Seaman Patterson. He worked for an architect in Buffalo, commuting daily from Dunkirk, where they were living. Their son was born January 15, 1920.
Earl moved back to Orlando some time after 1920 to work for Mr. Trimbal, the same architect for whom he had worked before. By 1922 he had found a place and sent for Geraldine and his son, John.
While all this was going Earl was studying hard so that he might pass the Florida State Board of Architects examination. In 1924 he succeeded and late in the year he moved his family to Melbourne, Fl., where he, with a man named Tylor, opened his own office. The office was a success from the beginning and soon grew to five or more draftsmen.
In 1925, Earl built his own home. Soon after the family moved into the home a second child was born, Marjory Jean.
By 1928, Earl's fortunes took a turn for the worst. The great depression hit Florida early. While his wife, Geraldine, took the two children to Dunkirk for the summer, Earl closed the office, unable to collect the moneys due payable and owing money, he would have lost everything had not Maud Patterson, his sister-in-law, held the mortgage on the house.
While Geraldine was in Dunkirk, Earl found a job as draftsman for an architect in Corpus Christi, TX. That fall, Geraldine, with the two children, joined him. As the depression closed in behind him, Earl, with family had to move again, this time to Austin. The job in Austin lasted from early January, 1929 until summer, 1929. Geraldine's sister, Jennie visited with them and accompanied Geraldine and the children back to Melbourne while Earl went on to Lubbock, TX, where he had found another job as an architect. From there he found work in Sweetwater and Geraldine and family joined him in early summer of 1930.
By the end of summer, 1930, it was all over. Earl, with family drove back to Melbourne to do what many people were doing then - what ever they could find to do.
Although there was little work to be had for the next six to seven years. small sailboat racing became very popular and Earl became very active in the organization of the Florida Eastcoast Yacht Racing Association.
Office space was found above the office and showroom of a lumber yard. There was very little work between 1930 and 1937. Earl designed a filling station, made designs for remodeling several homes and finally a break came in the form of a new hospital for south Brevard County.
1937 saw a breakup in the marriage of Earl and Geraldine. Earl moved to Orlando. He became part of a group of architects known as the Orlando Associated Architects. The Association designed several projects including Reeves Terrace, a housing project , and Rutlands Men Store which was under construction when W.W.II started. The Associated Orlando Architects broke up during the war, Earl went to work as an architect for the army.
After the war, Earl opened an office under his own name and enjoyed a successful practice until he retired in 1965. He was elected the first president of the Mid-Florida Chapter of the American Institute of Architects. He did very well for a man who only had a tenth grade education.
He died New years Day, 1969, and is buried in Vidilia, GA. with his second wife Mildred Glover De Loe
