659 Main (picture above) From Ross Frazier on Feb 20, 2011:
On the corner was a drug store with living quarters above. My parent and I lived there in 1938/39. In 1938 the property was owned by the druggist, Ed Hart, When he retired the Clyde Keys family purchased the property and continued to run the drug store, soda fountain, and sundry type store. The Keys family lived over the store.
CAW comments: 659 is the grey house; notice on the 1988 photo that the building still looked like a drug store with two large display windows. Sometime since it has been converted to be an attractive dwelling.

655 Main (picture above of wide brick house) From Ross Frazier on Feb 20, 2011: This was the Moser residence. Moser was a relative of the Phillips family (653 Main). Aunt Nell Moser was the daughter of Mrs. Moore. Nell Moser had one daughter Sarah, Sarah was a long time Gym teacher at the Old Wheeling High School. I bet she was there over 30 years. Sarah Moser went to the only Baptist Church in Wheeling, it was out the Pike on the National Road just east of Edgington Lane, Quite close the Jewish Synagogue.
