Kauffman's Meat Market and Grocery

Kauffman meat market in Beavertown, PA

(Courtesy of Richard Ettinger)

When Mr. Swartzlander sold his shop to Russell Kauffman in 1940, the Kauffman family moved into the house located at 219 E. Market Street. They later moved into the house connected with the shop at that time, located at 207 W. Market Street. This shop was removed, and the house just west of it was moved to 218 W. Walnut Street to make room for the new Kauffman's Meat Market and Grocery store, which is now Kauffman's TV. The man exiting the store is none other than Elmer Ellsworth Fall. He bought a head of cabbage on most of his visits.
