| Pennsylvania R.R. Ferries Building - Phila to Camden NJ - Delaware Ave - 1899 |
With two Harvard educated
candidates for Prez, some of us have forgotten who and what built this nation.
I have two grandfathers
listed on census forms with an occupation listed as “teamster”.
One grandfather, son of a
Civil War veteran, considering the date of the census was driving a team of
horses, the origin of the word “teamster”.
The other grandfather
probably drove an old Ford Truck in his day.
