I connected with Frank @fadingadsnyc_fjump while he was researching for his book Fading Ads of New York City. He was researching the advertisement in the photo which belonged to a business once owned by my family. Read his excerpt from the book below. . . “Pomeroy trusses, elastic stockings, abdominal belts, artificial legs [excerpt] My search to connect the disparate pieces of information on the Internet ended with a pleasant surprise. Beth Beeman, the great-great-granddaughter of Mr. Pomeroy, confirmed that the grave site in Green-Wood Cemetery in Brooklyn, with the birth and death dates of December 12, 1873, and December 30, 1956, belongs to the same man who helped sustain a prosthetic limb and abdominal belt empire in the state with the same moniker. Beeman also confirmed that his father, Daniel Pomeroy, founded the business in 1867 and passed it along to his son, who graduated from Wesleyan University with a bachelor’s degree in philosophy in 1895. In our e-mail exchanges, it was also confirmed that the May 3, 1903 New York Times obituary for three- year-old Ruth Elizabeth Pomeroy, daughter of Arthur Cleveland Pomeroy who died of scarlet fever, was indeed the oldest sister of Beeman’s grandmother and for whom Beeman’s mother, a published poet, was named. At eighty-three years of age, Mr. Pomeroy experienced the loss of a young child, completed a valued education in a prestigious university, inherited a thriving business and lived way past the expected lifespan of an American male in his time. This sign is a testament to Pomeroy’s legacy.” . . #fadingadsofnyc #pomeroy #brooklyn #brooklynhistory #familiesofnyc #nyhistory #nyhistoricalsociety #ancestry #familysearch #genealogy #architecture #tlpicks #stories #photosofnewyork #ig_brooklyn #igersbrooklyn #visitnewyork #visitbrooklyn #architecturephotography #brooklynnyc #brooklynlife #brooklynhistoricdistrict #photographerslife #passionpassport

It’s a cold and blustery day here in San Clemente.

Today is one of those special winter days in San Clemente. Bright blue sky and sunshine bouncing off the blue ocean. Great walk on the coastal trail this morning.
