Clinton Street


CLINTON STREET was named after DeWitt Clinton, one-time governor of New York and the developer of the Erie Canal. When originally laid out, Clinton Street east of Broadway was known as Hartman Street, in honor of Hartman Kuhn, son of Dr. Adam Kuhn and Elizabeth Hartman Kuhn. In 1882, to avoid confusion, the name of Hartman Street was dropped, and the street became Clinton Street for its entire length. Similar adjustments were made for Washington Street and Berkeley Street

Do you have a Clinton Street memory or picture. Let me know by e-mail so it can be included here.

'KID' ROLLER SKATES JOLT LOVE OFF BASE

A roller-skating child bride who thought her 19 year old husband "too old" for her was well en her way to being divorced yesterday by Al Daidone, 29, of 424 Clinton street.

Advisory Master Knight recommended a decree for Daidone. His wife, Fannie, lives near Scranton, Pa., with their child, Catherine, nine. Mrs. Daidone is now 25. They were married when she was not yet 15 and he only 19, Daidone testified. But instead of settling down, he said, his wife was roller skating day and night, and complained that he was too old. She deserted him, he said, in the Fall of 1928.

Knight also advised a decree for Mrs. Clara Zoeller Wall Safford, of 1269 Atlantic avenue, from Robert H., also known as Cornelius J. Linskey. They were married Feb. 10, 1923 and he deserted her in December, 1929, she said. World war bonus papers came to him in the name of Linskey, Mrs. Safford testified, but he never explained why.

A decree was recommended for Mrs. Edna N. Richards MacNeece from William G. McNeece of Baltimore. They eloped to Elkton, Md., March 9, 1935, and he deserted her less than three months later. She lives at 728 Woodland avenue.

My ancestors, John Test Davis (1828-1892) and his wife, Mary Copeland Davis built the brick dwelling at 512 Clinton Street in 1872. I have the receipts for materials, taxes and mortgage. I know they lived there for several years, probably right up until the next person listed in the mid 1880's. John Test was a commercial house painter who co-owned Davis & Allen, a painting contractor business also housed in Camden in the 1800's. John Test Davis lived there with his wife Mary M Copeland Davis; his children William, Rachel, John Test Jr., Ruth A, and Allen; and also his father-in- law William Copeland. John T. Davis and his son William were both master painters who owned the firm Davis & Allen while William Copeland was a shoemaker. The family then moved around to multiple Camden addresses.

HORSE-DRAWN WAGONS like this were used in the early 1900s by Victor Talking Machine Company to haul Victrolas. The work-day ended with delivery, of mail, about three or four small pouches and possibly a canvas sack of second class mail-Victor catalogues, to the old post office, 3rd and Arch Streets. A mailing department employee accompanied the driver on the trip. The former mail clerk, George H. Hutchison (center), of 120 Glenwood Avenue, MerchantvilIe, furnished the photograph.

3 BOYS ARRESTED, ONE AS BURGLAR
Others Captured on Roof of Vacant House; Oldest 13

Three small boys were arrested last night as lawbreakers.

John Greely, 13, of 419 Cedar Street, charged with malicious mischief and breaking and entering, was arrested by Detective John Kaighn on complaint of Carl H. Brummer, of 629 Clinton Street, manager of an American Store at Fourth and Elm Streets, who said he found the boy hiding in the cellar of the store.

The other boys, Victor Linkletter, 13, and William Hoy, 12, both of 506 Penn Street, are charged with trespassing. They were arrested by Detective Sergeant Gustave Koerner and Detectives Kaighn and Frank Crawford, who from windows of the detective bureau in new city hall, said they saw the boys on the roof of a vacant three-story building at 427 Market Street.

Climbing up the rear of the building they said they cornered the boys hiding behind a chimney, apparently planning to enter the building.

All three will be arraigned in police court today.

Camden Railroad Collectors
Boast Miniature Line of Own
Annual Trip to New York Model Show Highlight In Fans' Activity; Group Has Many Counterparts Throughout Nation

How would you like to have as your hobby the collection of railroads?

Some people not only would like to, but do, and they're not giants of finance, either.

Obviously, you can't collect full sized locomotives, cars and signals and place them in a book like a stamp collector. So the railroad fans have to content themselves with miniatures, going on excursions which the real railroads run especially for the purpose, just talking about the choo-choos and organizing model railroad clubs to further the hobby.

The West Jersey Railroad Club, founded in 1935, is one of the "minnie" organizations.

Located at 639 Clinton Street, it owns a partly
completed line, known as the Delaware, Susquehanna & Western Railroad, which runs on a mythical route between .Philadelphia and Buffalo.

This road in common with thousands of other such lines in all parts of the country, is an exact counterpart of a full-size railroad in nearly everything but size. It is no mere toy, nor do children have anything to do with it.

Locomotives and cars are faithfully modeled after the "big fellows" In appearance and in construction details. Track is miniature "T" rail, spiked to creosoted wooden ties laid on a simulated gravel roadbed.

Besides owning a model railroad, the club has the use of a large and rapidly growing library of steam and electric railway literature.

A high spot in the club's activity is its annual trip to the New York Model Show. There, one of the world's. largest, most realistic and complex model railroads forms the main attraction in a huge exhibition of models which fascinates every railroad-minded spectator, besides those not so railroad-minded. This year the members plan to visit the show Feb. 20.

The club meets at its Clinton Street headquarters every Wednesday evening and visitors are invited to attend. Officers are Thomas H. Clement, Camden, president; Raymond Harvey, Philadelphia, vice president; E. Lewis Pardee, 626 Park Avenue, Collingswood, secretary, and Edward Hilland, Camden, treasurer. Other members are: Warren Cook, Collingswood; N. W. Rehfuss and W. A. Zackon, Pennsauken; Robert Paget, Camden; William Megonigal, Upper Darby. Pa., and J. L. Starr, Haddon Heights..
