taken down seven or eight years ago,
and the man who superintended the
hands-Samuel ]. Owens-told me
that the house was built of hewed oak
timber, which shows that it was old.

IN 1855 Oak Grove was the home OF
William Trimble. How long Will
liam Trimble lived there before 1855
is one Of the many things the Ram
bier does not know. but he thinks II
was an old home then, and it may be
that Matthew Wright lived in that

it was the home Of William Trimble
and his wife Lucinda in 1855, because
on November &c, that year. their
daughter Margaret was married to
the late Adam Gaddis. Some men
have been present. William Trimble
died there in 1859. leaving his wife
Lucinda and five children, who were
Margaret, Mary, Jane, James and
Matthew. Only Mary survives. She
is the widow of Adam Gaddis. who
from 1850 to 1885 was in the grain,
feed and grocery trade at the south
west corner of Eleventh and NJ streets

ing the grocery and feed store OF B.

growing feeble, the firm of Earnshaw

Adam Gaddis, as you have been told,
was married to Margaret Trimble,
daughter of William and Lucinda
Trimble. at Oak Grove, now Bradbury
Heights, in 1855. Margaret Trimble
Gaddis died October 6, 1873, and five
years later, June 12, 1883, Adam Cad
dis married Mary. her sister. Adam
Gaddis died in December. 1915. He
was born in East Washington July
26, 1926. son of Adam Gaddis, who
came to America from County Down
Ireland. settled in Washington in
1920 and was foreman Of the galley
shop Of the Washington navy yard for
As years. His wife was Miss Julia Ann
Green of Baltimore County.

such things because there are a few

we are on the road.
1t is an old road. and it will not

through woods when the Eastern
Branch was the north limit of white

Log houses were built and patches
OF forest cleared. Farms came to be.
and frame houses with porticos and
brlck chimneyS were built OK carts
moved along the road and the family

business increased ard the stage

that parts of the line of Alabama
avenue are still called Bowen road.
Those parts are from Thirty second
street to the site of Fort Davis, at
Pennsylvania avenue and Thirty
eighth street, and from Fort Dupont,
at Alabama avenue and Forty y-second
street, to Bradbury Heights
The road passes Fort Dupont and
a few hundred yards later enters the
village Of Bradbury Heights. The
District Maryland boundary runs
through the village, but most of it
is in Maryland. Near Bradbury

ward Heights. Dupont Heights and
Capitol Heights. and there are other
heights east toward Seat Pleasant.
Hills and ridges in that. section are
go to 800 feet above tide. and no one
will quarrel with fathers and god
fathers of settlements for naming
them heights" Long ago the word
hill was more used than heights"
as a high-place name, and not far

else. 1t at least made bad smell, very
much like the incense and strong odors

than fumigation for sterilising rooms
