Looking east: 6543 Carrollton Ave This house had no running water when we first moved there in 1946. There was a pump from a well outside the back door. Running water which was hooked up to the house while we lived there. However, there never was any indoor plumbing at this house when we lived there. In the attached picture, you can see the outhouse to the back of the property.

Looking northeast: 6543 Carrollton Ave As I remember across the street was an open field and sometimes there would be cows there. I don’t remember any of the names of the neighbors living there at that time. The picture in the snow I think also shows a corner of the Madames Mice and More property which was a private home at that time
