I'm looking for resources on oyster bars/oyster "saloons" in Philly circa 1910-1920. Anyone have resources I might peruse? I have family that apparently owned one, and am trying to find out more.
what was the name of the oyster saloon that your family owned? I can access some Philadelphia directories for that time period- have you found the family in the census records? What was the family name?
I don't know the name of the saloon, but in 1910 a whole bunch of members of the Cardulo family (managed by Mattie Cardulo, also spelled Cardulla/Cardula/Cardullo) were running one. Thanks!
