1910 Ada Main Street

Posted by Fred Steiner on Thursday, April 4, 2013

Here's a look at Ada's Main Street, looking south from the railroad track, in 1910. The message portion of the post card (on the flip side) reads almost like a text message of today.

Sent from Charles High of Ada to Peter Janson of Rock Creek, Ohio, the message reads:

Friend Peter,

How are you getting along this fine weather. I got home OK. How is the spring working now. 

Yours truly Chas High, Ada, O.
