Featured photo: 1930 ad for the Hupmobile, sold by A. Beisel & Son, from Charlie Gallagher

From Charlie Gallagher: If it’s 1930 and you need a new Hupmobile, look no further than A. Beisel & Son, 416 Washington St.

I had not heard of the Hupmobile before. The site of the Beisel garage is still there, set back from the street unlike the other buildings on the block.

My brother Steve Tancin says that he remembers passing it frequently on his way to and from Boy Scout meetings at the Knights of Columbus building on Front and Washington (the old Lindsay building), and he says he remembers seeing two little Sunoco gas pumps there.

From directories published 1921 through 1957:

New identifications and a correction for an undated Tigers baseball team photo, from John Pollack, posted March 4, 2024

John Pollack wrote with new information about an undated photo of the Tigers baseball team (left, from John 'Zeke' Zurko) that had been posted on the Baseball page in the 1920s section. He wrote: Some intel on the photo from John Zurko in the 1920s section. The player 2nd from the right sitting on the board is my grandfather, Joseph A Ferry. The player behind him (3rd from right) looks to me like Jimmy Brogan identified in the 1907 Tigers picture on the front page of the Penny Saver (right, from Joan Buday). I can’t help with the date. Thank you for your work on the site.

Then he wrote back: I ended up in Newspaper.com after I saw the picture. After he played he was an umpire. The papers in the ‘20s identify him as an umpire so it’s pre-1920. Not sure when players in the day hung up their gloves, he would have turned 40 in 1922. Average age to quit today would be around 30. I’d put the picture in the teens.

Thanks to John Pollack for this! We're always grateful to have people in photos identified. These identifications have been added to the caption for the undated photo from John Zurko, and the photo has been moved to the earlier 1910s section of the Baseball page, pending possible further information. Thank you! I'll add that it would be great to have more information on our local umpires.

Featured photo: Anthony's grocery store, from Charlie Rudewick, posted November 14, 2023

Some months ago I heard from Charlie Rudewick. He wrote:

I recently found this photo of Anthony's Store (from around mid-1950s) located at 718 Walnut St. They sold candy and some pet stuff. I bought some tropical fish and a hamster from them.

When it was "Anthony's" it was owned by Willam Job Anthony and his Wife, V. Zitella Anthony. At one point, either before or after Anthony's ownership, it was Fritz's Store.

… Anthony's lived at 722 (we lived at 712 and they were on the same side of the street as us). Fritz was Zitella's maiden name and her brother and sister-in-law lived next door to them (720 Walnut). The Fritz's had a son, Mervin, who is/was my age and I think they ran the store for a while. The Fritz's moved away in the mid '50s and then the Anthony's son William moved in the Fritz house, next to Mom & Dad.

Thank you to Charlie for this. It's great to see the photo, with those big Freeland snowdrifts. I checked several directories and phonebooks for Anthony and Fritz listings relating to this address. Herbert W. Fritz had a grocery store at 718 Walnut at least since 1921. It looks like he and wife Bessie had a daughter, Zitella V., listed as a student in 1928. By 1940, Bessie Fritz was a widow at 718 and Elbert H. Fritz (with Ransom B.) ran the grocery store, but lived on Front Street. Meanwhile, William J. Anthony was at 722 Walnut, married to Zitella V. Fritz and working as a shovel operator. I didn't find the listing that showed when William Anthony and Zitella took over the Fritz grocery store, but Charlie's photo from the mid-1950s shows that it was the Anthony store by that time. And as Charlie said, the Anthonys' son William S. moved in next door to his parents, listed at 720 in 1966.

1921-1922 directory:
no Anthony, William
Fritz, Herbert W., grocer 718 Walnut, home ditto

1928-1929 directory:

Featured photo: Freeland Garage, ca. 1919-1921, from Steve Yaskewich, posted 5-30-2022

Freeland Garage, J. Boyle, Ford dealer, cropped detail

Steve Yaskewich shares this great photo of the "Freeland Garage" with three men posing in front, and at first he didn't know whose garage it was, although he soon figured it out. He wrote: The photo is pasted into a Family album. I don't know why it would be there other than a family member is in the photo. The man I pointed out looks like a picture I am 99% sure is Elmer Klein. I don't have anything to tie Elmer to the Garage...yet.
… Previous to 1922 Jim Boyle sold Studebaker...and Ford. … By 1922 there are articles showing Danko selling Fords. ...and that should date my photo between 1919 and 1921. I believe it would be post-WWI based on Elmer Klein's age.
One more thing about the picture of the "Freeland Garage"...When I am looking at it on my 52" monitor, and enlarge it, I can make out the bottom line of the sign as...J.W. BOYL...

CT: After some digging I found Freeland Garage listed in the 1917 phonebook as being at 417 Johnson Street. It wasn’t listed in the 1921-1922 directory under that name.

Joe Moore was also part of this email conversation. He wrote: Is there any chance that Freeland Garage, Boyle's, and Wilson’s are all the same place. I had a Facebook conversation with Russell Shaub a while ago after posting an image of the receipt for my dad’s first car purchased in 1928 from Boyle’s garage. He pointed out the address for Boyle’s was the same address as his childhood home, 415 Johnson St. Today Wilson’s is listed as 417. Russell Shaub's home was the white home next to Wilson’s that was torn down. The front of Wilson’s is brick now but that could have been added after your photo. The slope of the ground seems similar.

Thank you to Steve Yaskewich and Joe Moore, and to Russell Shaub, who supplied this photo and information about his childhood home.

Steve Yaskewich on the local Ford Dealers:
Before 1922 - J.W. Boyle
About 1922 to 1933 - John Danko (Harvey bio says began 1919)
1934 to 1938 - August Gross
1939 to early 1954 - unknown (during the War Years there was no production)
November 1954 to present - Feussner Ford

CT: This led to further conversation about who had which car dealerships in town, which resulted in a page on local car dealerships.

Recent obituary for former Freelander Hugh Hughes, posted 5-14-2021

Also from son Bill Morgan on another topic:
I’ve attached an obituary of a Freeland native, from our newspaper here in Arizona.

Pat Ferko Miller also sent me a copy of the obituary of Hugh Hughes. Thanks to both Bill and Pat, who thought that Freeland area residents should know about Hugh Hughes and his passing. – CT

Featured photos: Ice skating, 1930s-1960s, with photos from John Zubach and a Norm Zeisloft photo from Ed Merrick, posted March 22, 2021

So many of us growing up in the Freeland area over the years enjoyed the fun and exuberance of ice skating. Here are a few photos from 1939 and the 1960s that show what that was like. Visit the Ice skating webpage to see more, including some local reporting and ads from the 1920s-1940s.

Skating near the beaver dam along the road to Upper Lehigh

Skating pond between Freeland and Upper Lehigh, ca. 1939

From Ed Merrick: This is a photo taken in 1939 of a frozen pond along the Freeland-Upper Lehigh road. It was taken by Norm Zeisloft, a Freeland native, who became a photographer in the Air Force and later worked at the St. Petersburg Times, now the Tampa Bay Times, where I served as an editor for 32 years. I remember skating on such ponds in the woods, so this photo is especially precious to me. I remember skating there and gathering around a bonfire to get warm.

Marion Denion also remembers this pond as a very popular place to skate in the 1930s-1940s, and that people would build fires around the pond to keep warm during breaks from skating.

Skating on the ice rink made near the public park

These were cropped and enhanced from three photos from John Zubach showing skaters enjoying the rink next to the Public Park. Visit the Ice skating webpage to see the originals along with some local reporting and ads from the 1920s-1940s.

Jeddo Progressive Club, group photo from John Zubach

A while ago I bought this postcard that has printed along the left side: Annual Ball, Thanksgiving Eve. No year, and nothing on the back. So it's an event announcement. I don't know whether this house is just chosen as a representative image of a worker's house in Jeddo, or if there's any possibility that the club might have met there.

The only other thing in my files about this club is this very interesting group photo that I'd gotten from John Zubach some years ago, now given to the Freeland Historical Society.

Freeland Historical Society Open House - Sept. 15, 2018 - 1:00-4:00 p.m.

The Freeland Historical Society will host its first Open House on Saturday, September 15 from 1:00-4:00 p.m. The Society has been meeting monthly since its formation in 2007, and they’ve chosen their Open House date to celebrate Freeland’s incorporation as a borough on September 11, 1876. This is a free event! Stop by and see a display of some of the memorabilia that the Society has collected. There will be a small sale of duplicate yearbooks and other items. Please come and experience some of the Freeland area’s history. The Society’s headquarters is in the Seniors Building at the corner of Washington and Chestnut Streets.

This photo from the Society shows the Freeland High School Girls Basketball Team, seated on the grounds of DCM, with the old St. John's Reformed Church in the background (before the brick church was built).

Frank Ceol plowing snow with the help of Jim Boyle's horses, and views of the winter of 1914 (with thanks to Marie Marencin and Ed Socha) - posted 12-31-17

Marie Marencin told me that her father Frank Ceol was a cowboy before he moved to Freeland a little more than a century ago, and that when he was new to Freeland he worked at Jim Boyle's livery stable on Johnson Street (in front of what would later be the site of Freeland High). That was already exciting information - a cowboy! And another livery stable, one I hadn't known of. Around the same time that I spoke with Marie, Ed Socha alerted me to this newspaper clipping showing Marie's father plowing snow in 1914 with Jim Boyle's plow and horses. The newspaper clipping is used courtesy of the Standard Speaker.

Frank was born in 1896, and he moved to Freeland from Oregon in 1913 (so, around age 17). When he was a child, he and his older sister Anna rode a horse to the one-room schoolhouse they attended. He only went to school through 2nd grade, but he could read and write. Marie said that in the coal mines they spelled his name "Cole." His brother Joe's wife Ruth (Horn) Ceol was one of my Girl Scout leaders in the 1950s-1960s. These two photos come from Marie Marencin; the sepia tone images were "washed in Google images" by Charlie Gallagher to make them greyscale and visually sharper.

Jim Boyle had been at that Johnson Street location at least since 1912; he was listed in the 1912 and 1917 phone books this way: "Boyle, James W., Con & Bldr, Johnson nr Alvin." In the 1921-1922 Freeland directory he's listed: "Boyle, James W., 415 Johnson" under the heading Contractors and Builders. In the 1928-1929 directory there's this: "Boyle, James W. (Rebecca; Boyle's Garage), Lumber, Building, Roofing and Contractors Materials, General Contractor and Stripper, 415 Johnson." No mentions of a livery stable anywhere, though. Marie Marencin told me that his daughter Mary Boyle was the Home Economics teacher at Freeland High School.

Speaking of Frank Ceol plowing snow in 1914, Freeland had at least one spectacular blizzard that year and quite an intense winter, remembered on these four postcards (some previously featured here). The photo at left looking north at a pair of horses pulling a sleigh down Centre Street is shared courtesy of Carol Jones and the Freeland Historical Society. The horses are just about in front of the drug store and hotel shown in the second photo.

The photo showing Schilcher's Drug Store and the St. Elmo Hotel came to me from John Zubach, as did the one of DCM during an ice storm. The fourth photo was seen on eBay and is looking south toward the Front and Centre intersection; the enlarged crop gives a sense of how much of a hassle it must have been getting around in the snow in 1914. The poles holding up an awning at far right in that photo mark the entrance to Amandus Oswald's general store. The photo with Schilcher's Drug Store and the St. Elmo Hotel was published in the Pennysaver in 1969 with this caption:
"Photo on Centre St. after blizzard, March 1914 - looking north. We're informed that this is the storm a young girl lost her life in when she froze while out for a buggy ride. This picture comes to us through the courtesy of A. L. Mitke, who also gave us the identities of some of the people pictured here. Left to right: Antone Leppler, unknown, Tony Leppler, small boy unknown, Willy Dougherty in sweater, prop. of the St. Elmo Hotel."

Dr. Frank Schilcher was listed in the 1882-1884, 1884-1886, 1886-1888, 1895, 1897 and 1901 directories as a physician and often also as a druggist, always at the same location on Centre between Front and Walnut streets. In 1895 he was also listed as Secretary of the Freeland Water Company.
