'Turnback Tuesday' features business at Derby Junction


Turnback Tuesday highlights another business located at 14 Main St., Derby Junction.

This postcard photo was taken sometime after 1906. We know this because St. Michael's Church, in the background, had its groundbreaking in 1906. The building on the right is at 14 Main St.

John J. McEnerney Fire Insurance Co. moved the business to this location in 1896 until 1927, on the second floor or in the back of the building.

A druggist was located on the road level.


Thanks goes to the Derby Public Library staff for sharing interesting local history each week.
