what was Glenwood?

There are two brick columns beside the road at about the 3700 block of Glenwood Avenue (right up from the “not coming in the Fall 2005 Glenwood Homes”) inscribed with “Glenwood A.F.Neumann 1929″.

    According to a 1930 U.S. Census search at ancestry.com there was an Albert F. Neumann living in Richmond. It says he was born about 1880. You could pay to see the full record.

    I *think* part of the property connected to the columns is the brown stucco dutch-colonial-looking house up in the corner of 37th and Crestview. It’s not of the same vintage as the rest of the street. When I was stationed up there, I had the same question and did some poking around. I’m going to try a link to a maps.live page because the city GIS site is down, naturally.

    Thanks for the link to the map. Is that really live?

    Must not be live because the trailer park is still there on Government Rd

    Nah, the maps aren’t live - maps.live.com is one of the satellite mapping sites.

    I had the same question a few years ago. Maybe someone should research that house’s deeds.
