1911: Maybury Goldy's "St. Elmo," at Lakeside Park

The Goldy name is another old Hamilton family name, dating back locally to the mid 19th century. One can only imagine the beauty that was Charles Teunon's Lakeside Park when he began developing the community back in the first decade of the 20th century. Maybury Goldy was a Trenton coal dealer who resided on South Broad Street in the original area known as Chambersburg. He chose the beautiful environment of Lakeside Park, along the banks of Hutchinson's Pond, as it was known before Teunon gave it the name of "Lakeside."

Tom - Thanks so much for finding this article about my great-grandfather, Maybury Goldy and "St. Elmo"! We did know that he was very active in all Lakeside events and was an early homeowner. You have filled in some other history that we had no idea about! Thanks - you're a gem! Lakeside Girl
