Default 1869 Peck & Snyder Observation & Question

Posted By: Hal Lewis

Surely the widow Peck still owns a little house there.

She must be about 168 years old now, but she still sells ice skates and lemon-peel baseballs.

I think I received her latest catalog last month!

In all seriousness, however ...

"Peck Slip" is only a block away from where the store was located ... so there is no doubt that the Peck family was influential in that neighborhood in those days.
