The Methodist Parsonage on Wheeler Avenue. The home of many cleric families. In my time alone there were probably no fewer that six different families that lived here. I can name some perhaps: John Lennon, Joe Rainer, Rev Rollins??, and Stan Jones.
Looking closely you can spot Frank Houghtaling's (sp??) shop which was next door behind his home.

This comment from Chris Austin - I was up in Warwick this week to due to the death of my mother, Adell Austin who we had a small service for in the Warwick Cemetery. My Father's Father was the Minister of the Methodist Church Rev. William Austin. My Father had many storys of growing up in the parsonage and Warwick. I know my family has many pictures of the church which we saw is now filled with many businesses. We have many questions and we could probably answer some of yours. Is there anyone we might be able to talk with? We were also looking for a famliy in town and did not have much luck. He was my father's best friend Guy Slaughter. Any help would be some greatly appreciated. The Austin Family caustin@coldwellbankerprofessional.com or phone 1800-611-6097 and ask for Chris |
