Notes
This brick house on the south-west corner of Dundas and Athol Streets, was built in 1857 for Alexander C. Wilson (1826-1908), a painter. In August 1946, it became the Funeral Home for Stanley James Strowger. It is said that Mr. Strowger conducted only one funeral a year to keep his license. The house was later divided into stores and an addition put on the west end in the 1960s. This picture was printed in the Times-Gazette on August 31, 1946.
