In the front is a horse drawn wooden covered cart or wagon with the same name painted on the side and the address - 104 BROADWAY. I know this was last century, and the story goes that this was a grocery store that belonged to my great grandfather William John Huber and his wife Ada Belle Rogers Reed. Only one thing, I have discovered he was a rairoad man, not a grocer. Since the man standing out fron seems young, and they were married in 1886, and there is a young woman sitting on a chair holding a small baby, I think that if it IS him, this must be after 1888, birth year of their first child. There is somebody who is driving the cart, and another young boy in the doorway of the store. It would have to be somewhere in Indiana or Illinois. Stories say it's Indianapolis. It may be in Danville, Indiana, where his family was from. I am interested in finding out exactly where this store was located - the building is on the left hand corner of this Broadway. The photographer seems to be standing across the street. Any comments on where I should write to to get information on this will be appreciated. Thank you in advance! Have a great Christmas!
