Here's a photo of Grandfather holding my daughter, Susie, back in 1977.
The curtains look familiar as does the chair he's sitting in. Back then he lived in a little efficiency apartment at the corner of Main and First Street over what used to be the First Citizen's Bank. Across Main Street was Buchanan's Brothers Pharmacy; on the other side stood what is now in 2014 the Citizen's and Northern Bank. Kitty corner from the building stands the Coudersport Theater.
He liked to sit in the window and watch the world going by. He had a good view of Main Street as it ran from Allegheny Avenue over the bridge by Water Street.
He was born March 28th, 1917. Almost a hundred years ago.
