A: Elias and Flora married in Kismet, Florida, in January 1888, and actually lived for a time beginning that year in Daytona Beach; their first son was born there in December 1888. For a short time, Elias operated and lived in Daytona Beach’s Halifax Hotel. We do not know any other local locations where they lived. The next year, they moved to Chicago, where the rest of the Disney children would be born. Halifax Avenue was, and is, a major thoroughfare in Daytona Beach.
