HOWELL STREET is in East Camden. Today it begins at 20th Street just east of East State Street, in the shadow of the bridge that crosses the railroad yard. At one time there were a few houses below State Street. Howell Street runs parallel to the railroad tracks to 27th Street, then across 27th to 30th Street. Several business located along Howell Street during Camden's industrial years, and the first Catholic parish in East Camden, St. Joseph Church, was originally located at 25th & Howell Street. This site has been a ball field for many year. Other business to locate on Howell Street over the years included Nick's Auto Parts and the Pavonia Ice & Coal Company. Homes were built on Howell street by the 1880s. An early family, the Grosmicks, remained on the street into the late 1940s and in the neighborhood for years afterwards. The Vennells were there into the 1930s as well. Lewis Mote moved toward River Road, his family also remained in Camden well into the 1960s. and in the neighborhood. Thomas McClintock came in 1890, and resided on Howell till past 1920. Across 27th Street Howell Street was an altogether different story. With the exception of the Grosmicks and the John Carter family, most all of the homes on Howell Street seem to have been rental properties, and it seemed that no one stayed there very long. One of these families who passed through here was that of John S. Dukinfield, a relation of famous comedian and actor W.C. Fields, who was born William Claude Dukinfield Many of the houses that were on Howell street have been demolished. This process accelerated in the 1980s, when the crack cocaine epidemic ravaged the neighborhood. between 20th and 27th Streets. Sadly, at least three Howell Street residents have committed or have been the victim of homicide in 2004 alone. |

Supports Dixon's Ideas on Inspection To the Editor: Sir-There are nearly a million cars registered in New Jersey. This inspection will make a half million in six months and that is more than the stations and equipment costs. What will become of the money that is left over? They are not going to give us a lower license fee so let's all get together and back up Horace Dixon. We helped kill the sales tax. Why not kill this one too before the state get any more 50 cent pieces out of us. Mr. Dixon starts circulating petitions, I will be one of the first to give my help in getting them around to the different ones for their names. Let's hear from some of the other disgusted motorists.

DEATH
CHEATS WIFE OF MATE'S SURPRISE Fate and the heavy wheels of a bus turned to tragedy a surprise planned by Arthur Hickman, 45, of 2021 Howell Street, for the wife he had not seen for five weeks. Returning unexpectedly last night from Auburn N. Y., where he had been working as an asbestos pipe coverer, Hickman was but a few blocks from his home when he was struck by a bus and killed instantly. The tragedy occurred on Twenty-seventh Street, between Howell and Thompson Streets. Hickman had written a, letter to his wife, Lottie, telling her that his work soon would be finished and that he expected to arrive here Saturday. The work, however, was completed earlier than he had expected and Hickman arrived in Camden last night. He left a bus at Twenty-seventh and Howell Streets and stopped for a moment at the home of a friend nearby. Shortly after 6 p. m. he stepped from the curb and ran across Twenty-seventh Street in the path of a Schultz Pennsauken-Philadelphia bus. The front right wheel passed over his head. Identification was made possible only through papers in his pockets and his suitcase. William Renfrey, 24, of 2936 Cramer Street, driver of the bus, was held in $1000 bail on a charge of manslaughter by Police Judge Garfield Pancoast. Hickman was well known in Camden as a pigeon fancier. Beside his wife, he is survived by a son, Joseph, 24, attached to the aviation corps at Honolulu. |

1920s-1930s I lived in East Camden from December of '43 to July of '46. It was only a short time but these two plus years were the happiest of my life. I was 15 then and after living on a small street in South Philadelphia then moving to a house with a lawn, driveway and a garage was heaven. My two older sisters didn't care much for it because they had social ties in Philadelphia but I quickly made new friends in the neighborhood. The address was 2312 Howell Street across the street from the Pavonia railroad yard. I can still remember my mother hanging out laundry only to have to take it down and re-wash it when the switch engine across the street would blow it's stack sending a cloud of black smoke and ash over the whole neighborhood....continued |

1923 -1955 My grandparents Joseph and Josephine Edwards lived at 2412 Howell St from 1923 to 1955. My grandfather died that year in July and my grandmother packed her things and moved in with my parents and myself. She never went back to Howell Street after the day my grandfather passed. My mother was born in that house and I lived there with my mother, father and grandparents until I was two years old. I often wish I could go back and see if the house is still standing. I remember my parents and aunts and uncles playing card with my grandfather until the wee hours of the morning. I have many pleasant memories of the times I spent with my family in that old house. I remember neighbors from street. The Kelters, the Schaals, the Borges, and the Addisons. My parents also lived on Howell Street when they were first married. The nuns old residence was converted into apartments and my parents rented there. Sandy Thompson Top: Bottom: Photo courtesy of Sandy Tucker Thompson |

REMEMBER WHEN? St. Joseph's Church stood on the corner of 26th and Howell Streets at the turn of the century. Now, a playground is on the spot and the Church is located at 29th and Federal Streets. The photograph was submitted by Mr. and Mrs. Frank Hufner, of 2732 Polk Avenue. They were married in this church on June 19, 1901. |

St. Joseph Roman Catholic Church, Northeast Corner of 25th & Howell Street, Camden, NJ The petition to organize this perish was in the old Boyce residence on Cooper Street (now 27th. Street) in the Town of Stockton, during the year of 1890 and early in 1892, Bishop O'Farrell, of the Diocese of Trenton, directed the Franciscan Fathers from Sts. Peter & Paul Church to minister to this Stockton mission. The early services were held in Wright's Hall, on Marlton Pike, near Federal Street, beginning on Sunday, February 7, 1892. On April 20th. 1893 a resolution was passed to build a new church and architect John D'arcy, of Camden, was engaged to plan the new church shown here. This church was completed in October and was dedicated December 16th, 1893. The Rev Alphonse Lehrscholl was the first priest of the parish and was followed in 1895 by Father Ambrose Ebeiner, who was succeeded by Father Hirschmeyer in February 1899. He was followed by Rev. Dr. Joseph Rathner on September 17, 1899. In July 1902 the Rev. Anthony C. Shuvlin became rector and continued for 28 years when he was transferred to St. Peter Church, in Riverside, N.J. In October 1915, the church was badly damaged by a spectacular fire beginning in the church steeple. The Church building was abandoned in 1929, with the erection of the new school building on Westfield Avenue & 29th Street, and it was demolished as a fire hazard about 1939. Photographed in 1909. |

BOYS
HELD IN GEM THEFT Charged with the theft of a $725 diamond ring, two small boys were ordered held for Juvenile Court by Police Judge Pancoast yesterday. One of the boys, William McGinnis, 11, of 2639 Carman Street, had been released from the county detention home last Thursday on probation by Judge Shay. He had been one of six boys held in connection with a series of nine robberies in East Camden. The other boy is John Auletto, 10, of 2824 Howell Street. Mrs. Catherine Tydeman testified the pair had come to her apartment at Twenty-eighth Street and Westfield Avenue Thursday afternoon and told her she was wanted on the phone. Returning, she saw the two boys leaving her apartment, and a short time later she discovered that her pocketbook containing a $725 diamond ring was missing. District Detective William Hurlock arrested the pair at the Garfield School. He said he found the ring in their possession. Parents of the McGinnis boy pleaded for him before Judge Shay last Thursday and said he was "backward" because of a fractured skull he had suffered in an accident. |

PHILADELPHIA INQUIRER - September 25, 2004 Man charged in fellow inmate's fatal overdose A Camden County inmate has been charged with smuggling heroin into the jail and supplying it to another inmate, who then died from the effects of the drug. Jose J. Maldonado, 38, of the 2000 block of Howell Street in Camden, faces two drug charges as well as a charge of strict liability for a drug-induced death, a 1997 law that seeks to punish those who supply drugs to overdose victims. That charge carries a 20-year maximum sentence. Maldonado, whose bail was set at $200,000, originally was arrested on a drug charge and taken to the jail on Sept. 15. Authorities said he smuggled heroin into the jail in a body cavity. He has been charged with supplying heroin to Daniel Green, 31, of Camden. Green, a state prison inmate serving a seven-year sentence for aggravated assault and drug charges, was in the Camden County jail awaiting transfer to another state prison. He was found dead in his cell September 17. |
