1912 map of Oakfield as it appeared in the New Century Atlas published by Everts of Philadelphia. Many streets had not yet been built, including Cary, Bennett, Coe, and Farnsworth Avenues. There is a flag on Webber Avenue denoting the school built in 1893. Etzold Road in those days was called Fertilizer Road, since it led to the Oakfield Fertilizer Company southwest of the village. Today Etzold Road provides access to the private Oakfield Recreation Club (former site of the swimming pond used by the baby boomers of the 1950s and 60s) and deadends at the gate to the Oakfield recycle center.
