Does anyone remember or have pictures of the old Tuxedo Theater and nearby Candy Shop and Tailor. The owner of the tailor shop, a man named Walker Hancock, took in my great grandfather, Lloyd Jackson and his brother James Russell Jackson, when they had no place to live. Lloyd Jackson met my great grandmother, Marguerite MacLaren Jackson, at the Candy Shop. They lived on and around 10th St. most of their lives. Lloyd was a meter reader for the electric company.
Thanks for the glimpse into the past! Love It!
