Sixth Street

Sixth Street 1911

Photo of the homes on Sixth Street Trafford City.

This 1911 postcard published by S.L. Weyandt gives a great snap shot in time of the homes along Sixth Street, Trafford PA. The corner house is 601 Sixth Street and was once owned by a few of the following people: O A & Queen Grable, Austin & Ella Jolly, Clyde & Helen Mitchell, and current owners Thomas & Donna Owens.  The wrap around porch no longer exists on the current house.  Also take note of the horse & buggy on the brick street delivering ice to the home. The next house going up the street (605 Sixth Street) was owned by Elmer Henderson in 1915. 

The postcard below of Sixth Street was provided by Lynn Lloyd. Note the later addition of the telephone poles and street light. Growth of the trees is obvious, as is the replacement of horse and buggy with a few automobiles.
