Tract Housing?


These three houses use to catch my attention whenever I walked by as they are obviously the same house plan, built at the same time. They are along Green Street, across from the ball fields. The one on the far right has been taken down in the last couple years. But there must be a story behind these houses. Who was the developer?

Last of the Medical Center- 1979



So this is the last of the 1979 medical center photos for a bit. I don't have names for any of these people. We will leave here as we all enjoy the lawn party.

More, More Medical Center- 1979


I am told that the man with the glasses is Dave Van Scoy and that Lena and Lester Ohara are also in the top photo. But no one seems to know the men in the bottom photo. No one could decide if they were police or firemen.

More Medical Center 1979, again.


 Well, I knew the good ladies up to the house would have names. 
In the top photo, I am told that the man to the right is Onie Horr, and the lady in the middle is Judy Ellis Daniels. The lady to the left is Theresa VanDetto. The man in the bottom photo is Robert Blake, our local pharmacist.

More Medical Center- 1979


Top photo- Herbert and Linda Marshall, with young girl not known.
Bottom photo- I am told that the lady in the forefront was one of the Van Ditto sisters. We see Onie Horr in the print shirt, and Dan Randolph looking very dapper in his blue suit.

HJ Foster's-



This ad was taken from the Port Byron Chronicle, November 27, 1915. I certainly hope that this was not Foster's store, but rather a nice place for a sign.
This photo is looking at the southwest corner of Routes 38 and 31, or where the Pit Stop is today.
