This was likely taken at the Mohler farm in Bakerton, W. VA. Brunswick folks often camped on Garland Mohler’s farm along the river in the '30s. Pictured here are Eleanor Wenner, Mary Jane Watson, and Eva Mohler Watson (all standing). These are the only ladies we can identify.

When Moler’s Market served its last customer at 8PM that evening, it left Brunswick without a grocery store downtown. Mr Moler followed in his late father's footsteps when he bought the market on East Potomac St in 1957 from Churchman and Ridgeway.

- 17:32, 10 July 2022 Pwenner talk contribs uploaded File:Maryland and Virginia General Store.jpg (This store was briefly in business in the old Mace Building where King's Pizza has operated for years? Before this store, Mace Furniture, and City Meat Market did business. After that, it was the Berlin Restaurant. We think the Maryland and Virginia General Store operated from 1962 until sometime in the mid-'60s. It was an empty storefront after Cavell went out of business and was the Democratic campaign headquarters in 1968; an empty Kaplon's building served for Republican candidates. (Bl...)
