The
Camden Times was founded in 1894 as The
Stockton Times by George Lang. In 1897 Charles
W. Miller of 1046 North 18th Street
became the editor and
publisher. Unfortunately Charles
Miller was killed in a railroad accident in 1901. His daughter
Lillian ran the paper for six months, during which time she
set the type, ran the printing press, gathered the news and
solicited the advertisements. Editorials were written by Rev.
Roland Ringwalt. She sold the newspaper to John J. Tischner
who soon changed the title to The Camden Times. A some point
after 1921 Mr. Tischner sold the newspaper to Lincoln H.
Maryott, who was in the printing business. The Camden Times
reported local news, primarily concerning East
Camden, Cramer
Hill, and adjoining areas in Pennsauken and Merchantville. The
Camden Times was still being published as late as 1961, from
3514-3516 Westfield
Avenue, the home of Lincoln Marryott's printing business,
Acme Craftsmen..
