A little Jordan history..
Check out this New York State Historical Marker located in Jordan, NY.
Today the building is Bennett Bolt Works located on Elbridge Street.
The Jordan Historical Society Museum does have a Jordan wooden wheelbarrow on display.
I remember the building as the Ketchem Potty chair factory.
On another subject, I have seen numerous early photos / postcards with H.A. Myer Co.; Photographers; Jordan, NY on them. Does anyone have any information as to who they were?
