Tom, thanks. We still didn't have a family car in those days. Mom had
some sort of cart she could use to carry home some grocery bags. I
finally got a car in 56. Left my 54 Mercury with Dad when I enlisted in
59. His first car.
If this is 3-4 blocks North of Chambers on the right side, I think that is where Mom shopped, after we moved to Hamilton Township and Redfern St in early 54. Looks familiar.
IT IS, RON. IT IS BETWEEN CHAMBERS STREET IN THE AREA OF THE CEMETERIES IN THE BERNADINE AVENUE AREA.

oops. the Liberty Food Market was originally Risoldi's butcher shop. The father left the business to his children, Sam, Benny & Esther. They expanded it to the size in the photo. Esther marriec and left, Benny bought a tavern in Cookstown that he ran for many years.
I earned my first "paycheck," a dime, from Benny by delivering flyers around the neighborhood. I was 8 years old. We lived at 1633 Liberty St between the Chambers St. Church & Cristofaro's monuments.
