551 Woodland Avenue

I grew up in Fairview in the 1960's, however my grandparents lived at 551 Woodland Ave over in the Terraces. My father was a Camden Fireman and my mother a waitress, so whenever their work schedules collided (which was often) I spent time with my grandparents over on the Terraces. It was like a 2nd home to me.

My grandfather worked at the New York Shipbuilding Corporation yard, so in the early 60’s he and my grandmother moved from Fairview over to the Terraces so that he could be closer to his job. I remember him coming home for lunch everyday.

Woodland Avenue was the very last street in the Terraces. Out the backdoor of my grandparents house was an open field, then train tracks and the old Camden Brewery. Across the street from the Brewery was Cadillac Dog Food. I remember standing on my grandparents back porch and watching while they imploded the Brewery, then a few years later Cadillac Dog Food.

The trains that came out of the NYSY railyard would have to slow way down to negotiate the southern spur (curve). As kids we used to hide in the tall grass right at the curve and wait for them to slow down. Then we would jump on and ride the train down to the street crossing at Morgan Blvd. One of the worst “tannings” I ever got was when my grandmother saw me do it once. First I got it from her, then again when my parents picked me up to go home.

The people in the picture are my grandparents Ed and Helen Grochowski . They lived there befor us I will ask my mom about more info on what year they lived there. I believe we lived there 1967 through 1973? I know I went to H.B.Wilson kindergarten through fifth grade. My grandfather Hallahan was one of the crossing guards. I remember a lot of the neighbors names if you need them on Woodland Avenue on both sides. I'm still in touch with my best friend Maureen Laughery who lived right across the street from me. All us kids on Woodland Avenue would play all day long till dark We would play jacks and go from porch the porch setting up dolls and our furniture, jumping rope and the big thing was playing in the shipyard. Me and my brother loved playing in the shipyard specially when it snowed it would be so windy out there he's three years younger than me he'd have to hold onto the fire hydrant so he wouldn't blow away. The trains were running at that time and Campbell Soup was running . I loved hearing the train whistle and a lot of times I would see my uncle Steve driving the trains! I truly loved those days on Woodland Avenue. Coleen Hallahan September 2016.

'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 McNeece 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.	728 Woodland Avenue 1938 Mrs. Edna N. Richards McNeece Camden Courier-Post February 15, 1938
