OLD VILLAGE HALL stood in the shadow of the water tower at 84 S. Milwaukee Avenue. It was built in 1897 and served until 1955, later becoming the Museum of the Wheeling Historical Society and was moved to Chamber Park.
ORDINANCE NO. 57 of the Wheeling Village Board set a speed limit of 12 miles per hour when going straight and 4 miles per hour when turning corners. It was passed September 20, 1904.
GAME WAS PLENTIFUL in the early days of Wheeling, and you could count on hunting to provide a share of the family's meat. In this picture the game was a fox, shot more to protect the barnyard geese and chickens.
