3809 Cresson Street Philadelphia PA 19127
When Agnes (known as Bridget) died in 1915 from acute appendicitis, she and her husband John and daughter Anna lived in this house.
In 1915, the railroad went right down Cresson Street. It was not until later that a wall was built and the railroad elevated to protect the neighborhood from the numerous accidents that occurred because of its original location.
