1913: Tom Speculates


The beautiful mansion illustrated with that fancy mansard roof was once the home of C.V. Meade, of the very earliest Mercer Rubber Company. Meade's estate was located in the triangle-shaped area of land between today's Nottingham Way and Hamilton Avenue in Mercerville. Mr. Meade had a beautifully landscaped estate on that plot of land. I have super-imposed a segment of a Hamilton Township map to show the triangular area of the Meade estate.
