I found this article and photo to be quite interesting. I must admit that I never heard of the Trenton Steel and Wire Company, nor was I familiar with "Ingram" Avenue. It turns out that Ingram Avenue was located in the area of the old Wainwright farm in the area of Princeton Avenue and the aforementioned Ingram Avenue in North Trenton.

1920: EVER HEAR OF "TRENTON STEEL & WIRE?"

I suspect the plant was located on West Ingham Avenue and not Ingram Avenue as no such named street exists in Trenton. I suspect it was in the area around C. V. Hill. There were quite a number of small industries in that location.
