Webber Avenue looking south. This is an image from a postcard sent from Oakfield to Buffalo, NY, dated 29 July 1910. The postcard was published by C.A. Spear of Oakfield, and was printed in Germany. Note the young trees, and the utility line to the left, under the foliage. Is it electricity, telephone, or telegraph?
The building to the immediate right, which appears to be a large duplex, is the historic Colonel Cary residence. At the time the photo was taken in 1910, the home was owned by
G.H. Craft. Prior to 1893, the house was situated on the corner of Main and Webber, but was torn down and relocated to make room for the United Methodist Church.
