Francis "Frank" & Elva Armentrout Vansant
Margaret A. Vansant

I'm sending some information regarding 617 Bailey Street. It is where my mother the first 10 to 12 years of her life. My mother was born May 29, 1913, and moved from Camden to Upper Darby, PA, in the 1920's.

Following their marriage and spending their honeymoon in Mount Holly, my grandfather, Francis (a.k.a. Frank) Vansant, his wife Elva Armentrout Vansant, and my mother, Margaret A. Vansant resided at 617 Bailey Street until 1927.

During the 40's,. 50's and 60's our family made myriad trips
across the bridge on our way to Smithfield (the one near Mount Holly) to stay in a cabin on the Rancocoas Creek that my grandfather and his lumberyard staff built. You can imagine how many times I heard about where my mother had lived
as we entered Camden.

Frank owned a lumber yard in Philadelphia, Magargal Vansant Lumber & Millwork, at 2nd and Montrose Street, Philadelphia. It was a convenient commute from Camden to his business near the PA end of the Delaware Memorial Bridge. He also owned a lumbering property in West Virginia, where he met his wife. When Philadelphia bought his business to build a high-rise, low income housing unit, he set up his foreman in a new lumberyard in Glenolden, PA, and retired. Until the day he died in his late 80's, he went to an office that was made for him in the Glenolden business. I think everybody loved him! Though he was slightly over five feet tall, he had much respect.

In the 1880's his father, Richard P. Vansant, owned the lumber- yard and lived in the Port Richmond section of Philadelphia. Richard was also a sea captain who transported mahogany from his lumber yard in Columbia, South America; to his Philadelphia business.

During my mother's later years she identified people and places in her photo album of her childhood years. It began with her proud parents and her in the Camden neighborhood and identified some of the neighbors with whom they had become friendly. One neighbor had the last name of Woods and worked at the Scott paper Company in Essington, PA. One photo of my mother in a baby carriage was taken at Pyne Poynt Park, which was behind their home in Camden.

Judging by the photos after the 2007 fire, I doubt there are any parts of 617 remaining today.

YEAR'S HOTTEST DAY 'BAKES' CITY, KILLS 2
Edward T. McAllister, Veteran at Esterbrook's,
Dies on Way Home

The hottest day of the year brought death to two persons in Camden and Philadelphia, yesterday and caused general discomfort from the Rocky Mountains to the Atlantic Coast. No relief is expected today, except possible showers.

Edward T. McAllister, 67, of 633 Bailey Street, collapsed late yesterday in an alley at the rear of 914 North Sixth Street. Neighbors called police who took him to Cooper Hospital where he was pronounced dead. Coroner Benjamin R. Denny said death was due to heart attack, induced by the heat.

Some Memories of the 800 block of Bailey Street
Click on Images to Enlarge

My family lived at 830 Bailey St from 1953 (I was 8 yrs old and in the third grade at Read Elementary school) until 1968. My parents were Herbert and Helen Sampson and have 6 Daughters Anne (me), Helen, Stella, Carol, Michelle and Mary. My father drove oil rigs for Matlack trucking which was later bought out by Hess Oil. After my family left 830 Bailey a Hispanic person bought it.

My Father (upright Bass), Al Bush (drums), Al Davidson (guitar) and Ed Bowles (guitar and piano) had a band and they would set up on our porch at Christmas and play music for the neighbors and everyone drank and had a good time. My dad and other guys, Calvin and Carlton "Cush" Krause, David Gladney would get together and set up block parties with beer kegs and music. One time the adults on the block gathered with their lawn chairs up on the corner of 9th and Bailey and one of the kids on the block called the cops reporting a bunch of kids partying on the corner. The cops came and saw all the adults and left.

Another time the young guys on the block lifted Robert Morris's Volkswagen onto his porch and when Robert opened his door to go to work or school, his car was there.

When the great north eastern blackout happened everyone on the block was watching the first showing of Outer Limits on TV. It just said "We control your TV" and all the lights went out. The Krause's and us and other's on the block ran out on our porches and freaked out.

I remember the man going down the back alley way yelling " Clothes props, come and buy your clothes props.

The kids on the block played in the alley ways a lot and on Pyne Poynt
by the river. On Halloween we soaped windows and rang doorbells and ran.
On Christmas Eve I remember walking down York Street in the snow to go to midnight mass at Holy Name Catholic Church and on the way there was a little shop that was all lit up for Christmas.

Next door to us 832 Bailey were the Krause family, Calvin, Mary (She worked for Sears) and their children Calvin Jr., Maryann, Paul, Billie, Joseph and Stephen. On the other side of us was David and Ruth Gladney and son. He played piano by ear and he and my dad always played jokes on each other. Next to Mr. Gladney was the Murphy family, Mr & Mrs. Murphy and their children Joe (who died a young man in a car accident), Agnes, Margaret, Donna and Louise. Margaret lives at the shore somewhere with I think her 5 children.

At 834 Bailey lived Carlton Krause and wife with son Robert lived next door to Calvin. Carlton Krause had a son named Carlton Jr. and a son named Phillip. My sister told me that Robert Krause, Carlton Krause Jr., Margaret Murphy and Donna Murphy all live in Cape May, New Jersey. Louise Murphy lives in Delaware and Calvin Krause in Collingswood.

At 836 Bailey was Mr. & Mrs. Reibel and sons Danny and ?. 838 Bailey Street was Mr. & Mrs. Morris and son Robert. 846 Bailey had John and Lulu Reppert and son Jack. who married Agnes Murphy. 848 Bailey was the home of Mr. & Mrs. Burkhardt and sons Billy, Richard (married Linda Taylor from York Street), Robert and daughter Mary Ellen. 847 Bailey had Flexitallic Gasket company at one end and the paper factory at the other.

818 Bailey: James J. Owens, his mother lived there and her Granddaughter Suzanne Owens would visit and we would play with her and she had so many toys we thought she was a rich girl. She lived in Pennsylvania. Suzanne's parents were divorced. 824 Bailey Mrs. Beckett with her disabled brother Richard, and her son George. 812 Bailey was Mr. Shoemaker. 814 Bailey Mr. & Mrs. Baker and son ? and daughter Margaret.

North Camden Wife Swindled By Man Offering Husband Job Woman Borrows $5 From Neighbor and Gives It to Stranger; Fraud Revealed on Trip to Philadelphia City Hall A North Camden woman was fleeced of $5 yesterday and left without funds to walk home from Philadelphia City Hall by a confidence man who promised her husband a job. The victim is Mrs. Florence Downing, wife of Frank Downing, 816 Bailey street. She borrowed the $5 from a neighbor after the stranger offered to get Downing a job if he registered at Philadelphia City Hall as a solicitor. Mrs. Downing said the stranger first asked her to advance a $12 registration fee, but later compromised for $5 and said he would obtain the balance from Downing's first week's salary. Mrs. Downing accompanied the stranger by bus to Philadelphia when he said she might register for her husband. Near City Hall, he left the bus, telling her to go to Room 542 and ask for Mr. Sells. "He said he would telephone and fix everything up for me," she told police. The woman reported she found there was no Room 542 and no Mr. Sells. Mrs. Downing said the swindler obtained her address through her husband's father, George, 936 Cedar street, after he approached George Downing and asked him where he could contact 20 young men who wanted to earn from to $10 daily.	816 Bailey Street 1938 Francis J.
