Division Street

DIVISION STREET must have been named because it divided something, but what I'm not exactly sure of! Line Street, which lies 2 blocks to the north was named because it followed the finally settled line of division between the Cooper and Kaighn properties. I'm not sure that Division Street ever actually divided anything!

Do you have a Division Street memory or picture. Let me know by e-mail so it can be included here.

     Charged with allowing disorderly persons to congregate in her home, Mrs. Elizabeth Holmes, 519 Newton Avenue, was fined $25 by Police Judge Lewis Liberman yesterday.

Arrested with her were Mary Williams, 38, also of the Newton Avenue address; Charles Weatherby, 28, of 548 Division Street and Edward Werner, 26, of 707 New Street. They were charged with being inmates.
     Sergeant John Deith and Policeman Earl Wright said they found whiskey on a table after they went \to the house in response to the complaint. Wright testified he had to climb the rainspout to get in.

At 8 P.M. on January 15th, Box 374 at Sixth and Spruce Streets was transmitted for a phone alarm reporting a dwelling at 838 Division Street, South Camden. Arriving fire fighters found nothing and following a search of the neighborhood, declared the incident a false alarm. Some thirteen minutes later, 374 Box was again transmitted, now reporting the address of 638 Division Street, more than two blocks from the previous location. This time, units found a three-story frame heavily involved with fire extending to adjoining properties. The wrong address had caused the blaze to gain considerable headway. A second alarm assignment was required.
