Old Blaney to New Elgin
Thanks to the Elgin Centennial Committee, our hosts

Where Blaney began—A telegraph operator sits in the Western Union window of the Seaboard train depot at Blaney in the early 1900s.

Thanks so much to Barbie Russ  for this image of her great granduncle Elihu Meares, an early 1900s telegraph operator who traveled in the employ of the Seaboard Air Line Railway. The Blaney depot building, moved to Stephen Campbell Road, now serves as Goff Feed & Tack.
