Carroll Magazine Union Bridge: The Little Town That Could Apr 1, 2005 Written By Leslie Eckard

Labels: Carroll Co Dist Union Bridge, Journalists, Journalists Eckard Leslie, Media Carroll Magazine

Ms. Leslie Eckard just called to my attention an article she had written on Union Bridge for Carroll Magazine in 2005.

I have just filed a story on Union Bridge and the Western Maryland Railway – and the railway museum in Union Bridge. I had dinner at the “Original Pizza” and posted some pictures on Facebook…

Union Bridge: The Little Town That Could

Posted By CM on Apr 1, 2005

Written By Leslie Eckard

Be sure to read the entire article here: http://carrollmagazine.com/union-bridge-the-little-town-that-could/

Highlights:

Community spirit and innovation run like parallel train tracks in Union Bridge. The area is a study in contrasts: a hard scrabble land of rock and swamp that inspires works of art; a town poised for a growth spurt while holding on fiercely to its heritage.

Located on the Piedmont Plateau in western Carroll County, Union Bridge has retained its population (approximately 1,000) and small-town feel for generations. With its one stoplight and absence of fast-food restaurants, coffee bars, and strip malls–it is a throwback to a simpler time…

[…]

Other improvements included the establishment of Little Pipe Creek Park, a wetlands preserve complete with a bicycle and walking trail…

[…]

Union Bridge has a long-standing tradition of community spirit. In 1820, early descendants of the original settler, William Farquhar, worked together to build a bridge that would span the swamp and join their lands together.

[…]

Between 1855 and 1862, with the coming of the Western Maryland Railroad, the population of the town exploded…

[…]

Another Union Bridge “import” and fan is Angelo Monteleone, whose restaurant, Original Pizza, is a must-see…

We enjoyed our food. The service was great. Our server was very friendly. There are plenty of tables which is good because a steady stream of customers visited while we were there.

“Original Pizza” is bright, clean, and well maintained. It has all manner of great Union Bridge history memorabilia, pictures, artifacts, and mementos. It is like eating at a museum cafeteria.

It sits across the intersection from the sculpture at the corner of North Main Street and East Broadway, which is a reproduction of “Love Reconciled with Death” by Union Bridge native William Henry Rinehart (1825-1874.)

Stop by and tell them Mayor Perry Jones’ Uncle Kevin sent you.

Sweet memories still remain from Shaffer & Co. Variety Store

Sweet memories still remain from Shaffer & Co. Variety Store Baltimore Sun By Kevin Dayhoff

http://kevindayhoffwestgov-net.blogspot.com/2011/09/sweet-memories-still-remain-from.html

It was 50 years ago when the Shaffer & Co. Variety Store, a Westminster institution close to the hearts of many children in town, closed.

After our recent columns in The Eagle regarding the Westminster Post Office building at the corner of Main Street and Longwell Avenue, a number of readers have been in touch with questions.

Several asked about the two buildings that once stood to the east of the post office in what is now a parking lot.

Shaffer & Co. Variety Store

Eagle Archives By Kevin Dayhoff, September 25, 2011

It was fifty years ago when the Shaffer & Co. Variety Store, a Westminster institution close to the hearts of many children in town, closed.

After the recent two-part series ran in the Eagle Archives on the Westminster Post Office building, at the corner of Main Street and Longwell Avenue, a number of readers were in touch with many questions.

Several asked about the two building that once stood to the east of the post office in what is now a parking lot.

A January 13, 1966 newspaper clipping provided by local historian George Welty, tells part of the story. “… the Stonesifer building (was) being demolished last week to make way for Post Office enlargement...”

A second picture was identified: “These two buildings located on East Main Street next to the Post Office were completely demolished last week… The store … located in the corner building will long be remembered as Schaffer’s store. Jessie Myers having done business there for many years.”

Post Office took shape through rain, sleet, bankruptcy, deaths

Eagle Archives

Kevin Dayhoff, September 3, 2011 | 6:44 p.m.

Last week we discussed the incarnations of the Westminster Post Office — but there are more stories to tell. In 1934, folks began to wonder if the "new" post office at the corner of Longwell Avenue and East Main Street would ever be finished.

Of course, the present post office is on Woodward Road, but here's the story of that classic 1934 office (now home to Kohn Publishing) in the downtown area:

"The old story that 'good things come to those who wait' is true, for travel where you will, a finer and more beautiful post office building will not be found…," according to an old newspaper clipping from Aug. 24, 1934.

+++++++

The two buildings in this photograph, the Stonesifer building and the Shaffer & Co. Variety Store, were torn down in the first week of January 1966 to make way for the expansion of the parking lot for the 1934 post office building at the corner of East Main Street and Longwell Avenue. Harry W. and Arline Myers Shaffer founded the business in 1911 as a general merchandise store. Arline’s brother Jesse later joined the business after WWI. When Mr. Shaffer died in 1941, his widow Arline and their daughter continued in the business along with Jesse Myers – who was later helped by his son, Howard Myers. The store closed in January 1961. Original photo by Kevin E. Dayhoff published by the Democratic Advocate Jan. 13, 1966.

Peg Benson Shilling of Westminster, 89

A memorial service for Peg Benson Shilling of Westminster, 89; will be held at St Benjamin's Lutheran Church, 700 Krider's Cemetery Rd, Westminster, MD on December 12th, 2015 at 11 AM. http://kevindayhoffwestgov-net.blogspot.com/2015/12/peg-benson-shilling-of-westminster-89.html

R. Margaret Benson of Westminster, peacefully departed this life at age 89 on November 14th, 2015 in Tacoma, WA.

Loved and respected by all who knew her, Peg was a shining example of love, grace, and poise. Her passion in life was best expressed through her faith, love and unending devotion to her three husbands, their children, grand-children, and great grand-children. Be it her biological-family or family-by-marriage, she treated one and all, as her own.

Peg was born Ruth Margaret Benson in Westminster, MD on March 15th, 1926, to her parents Raymond and Grace Hosfeld Benson.

Peg married her first-love, Thomas E. Shilling of Westminster, MD on December 23rd, 1946. Peg was predeceased by her 1st husband and is survived by their four sons: Thomas Shilling of Marblehead, MA; Mark Shilling of Saylorsburg, PA; Kinsey Shilling of Mount Vernon, WA; and Brian Shilling of Tacoma, WA.

Peg's 2nd marriage to Paul T. Smock of Wayne, NJ occurred on July 28, 1973. She was predeceased by her 2nd husband and her step-daughter, Karen Smock of Austin, TX. She is survived through her 2nd marriage by four step-children: Kristen Ogwaro of Moulton AL; Paul and Katherine Smock of Elk Grove, CA; and Parker Smock of Binghamton NY.

Peg was also predeceased by her 3rd husband, Ronald S. Jamieson of Greensboro, NC. She is survived through her 3rd marriage by her four step-children: Ronald Jamieson of Waynesville, NC; Jim Jamieson of Orange, CA; Karen Ipek of Norcross GA; and Meredith Renz of Greensboro, NC.

To name all of Peg's son and daughter-in-laws, grand-children and great grand-children would fill a small book. And those touched by her love-filled life are truly never-ending.

Peg attended Westminster Elementary and High Schools, graduating in 1943. She was a 1947 graduate of Hood College, Frederick, MD, majoring in Biology.

Peg trained in nursing at Johns Hopkins Hospital, Baltimore, MD. She was an Administrative Assistant to the Departments of OBGYN and Pediatrics at the University of Maryland Hospital, Baltimore, MD.

Since retiring, she had more time for gardening, family, and friends. Her love of flowers, especially roses, kept her occupied three seasons of the year. Being a watcher of feathered friends (i.e. song birds) brought her much joy year round.

A memorial service will be held at St Benjamin's Lutheran Church, 700 Krider's Cemetery Rd, Westminster, MD on December 12th, 2015 at 11 AM.

In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to a charity of one's choosing. We all will miss her tremendously, and know she is in a better place.

The Historical Society of Carroll County Announces the Reprinting of - The Forgotten Corner: A History of Oakland Mill by Diana Scott

http://kevindayhoffwestgov-net.blogspot.com/2015/12/the-historical-society-of-carroll.html

Based on years of research, the book tells the fascinating story of a Carroll County community lost to the waters of Liberty Reservoir. From early settlement to the growth of a textile mill on the bank of the Patapsco River, it examines the lives of those who worked in and around the Oakland Manufacturing Company.

Oral histories with some of the last residents offer a moving account of life in the town and the experience of watching their community disappear. The new edition includes information not found in the original.

The book will be after available November 11 in the Shop at Cockey’s. The price is $22.00 plus tax. Historical Society members receive a 10% discount. The Shop is located at 216 East Main Street in Westminster. The Shop is open Tuesday through Saturday, 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

Mrs. Scott presented an illustrated lecture on the history of Oakland Mill at the Historical Society’s Box Lunch Talk on November 11, 2015 at Grace Hall, Grace Lutheran Church, Carroll Street, Westminster.

The Box Lunch Talks begin at noon and last about an hour. Bring your lunch – the Society provides beverages and desserts. Admission is $3.00 for Society members and $7.00 for non-members. Books will be available for purchase.
