I was so delighted to find a web page www.hallplacesuffolk.org/ about the neighborhood in which I was raised. I thought that this might be a good time to add a few pictures and notes about the homes, families and individuals as I remember them from my time on Cedar Street at 339 Cedar from 1952 until about 1961 when my grandfather George Franklin Whitley died and 329 Cedar Street which was the home of "Grumps" (as we called him) and "Nanny," Dolly Ann Bell Cross Whitley. Nanny had married in 1906 or so to Bennie Frank[lin] Cross of Suffolk, but Mr. Cross was killed in an an industrial accident only two weeks after they were married. Nanny married Grumps in 1907 and they first lived on Saratoga Street (on that I am not 100% sure) and then moved to 210 Cedar Street and finally to 329 Cedar Street.
At 327 Cedar lived the Presley Family and at 331 the William Ficare family.More later. Gotta run.
