Broadway Bridge and Kinyon Groceries - Updated with Earl Cuyler's comments


Comment from Earl Cuyler - Here's a tidbit if you look at the town bridge in this picture you'll notice no guardrail around it.  I'm sure you will remember that rail the city put it up so ( Wylon "Wimpy" Moore) could not ride his motorcycle over it anymore.  His dad was John Moore.  Wimpy told me this story.

Skinny's Bullock's cabin on the St. Joe

Picture and comments sent to me by Martin Lepper.  The photo of Skinny's cabin on the St. Joe near former Davidson's house...which is now owned by Greg Hull.  The cabin is across the river from there.  I took this photo about 10 years ago.

Raymond Grimes and Skinny Bullock - Re-posted see comment!

The picture was scanned while visiting the Hammond House in May.  Note on the back notes Wilbur Raymond Grimes and Skinny.

Comment ....Hi,  I love the site.  I've to take more time to look at the photo's but the picture that say Wilbur Grimes  is Raymond Grimes my grandfather. Wilbur (wig is his son). But I know that is a picture of my grandfather.  I'm Robert (cob's) daughter.  Wendy Ryder

Comment sent by Bea Lake ....I think the picture of Grimes and Bullock could be related to the  bluegill rearing pond out by Union Dam.   I think they are bluegill fingerlings they released out there.   I think this picture is related to the article of the same in the newspaper.

Bob's Meat Mart and Mary Jane's Clothes Closet - 1966

My brother Marty sent the picture and comments to me for posting.  The attached is a 1966 postcard with Bob's Meat Mart and Mary Jane's Clothes Closet.  Bob's (Bob Brewer) is where the Daily Grind is today; it was Boynton Travel Agent during the 1980's.

Comments:  Sent to me by Earl Culyer - Another business that was in the building where the Daily Grind is today, was a pool hall run by Jack Cooper.  When I was just a little fellow, my folks and I lived above the pool hall.  Next to the pool hall on the left, Dar Swain and Bill Bathrick had a barbershop, and later Besse Stagner had a beauty shop there.
