Bill Dennis
Nancy Averitte This street in frontlor bottom of pic, is Roberson Street. The other is comin down N. Lee street and yes the road goes to Pee Dee. The buildings on the street to the right across the bridge were grocery stores. The mill on the left was Pee Dee #2 and Pee Dee #1 was at bottom of N. Randolph St.
ReplyDeleteJimmy Dunn The bridge and trestle on North Lee st. crossing Hitchcock Creek. They used to park a steam locomotive there every afternoon.

ReplyDeleteSandy Browder The red brick building was once a National Guard Armory and the white one a company store. Both have been owned by my family for many years, recently sold both to my brother David. We still own the old railroad right of way on the other side of 220 over to N. Randolph St. David is making the old armory into a shop for his business. Good picture.

And the mill to the left was indeed Martha Baum under JPS ownership.
Well we had a lot of responses on these photos. Most everyone got the N Lee St correct and a lot of good info from the input. The photo on top was Revel's BarBQue - before it was demolished of course.

I was a definite transplant. but anyway i love the web sites,will take a while to digest all the info. thanks for the info. R'ham was "Camelot" as my spouse always says when i tell him my stories. I am so happy to have grown up in that place!"
