We recently came across this photo in our collection. In the center is Thomas R Marshall and to the right is Simon Peabody. Likely they are in Florida where Simon had a residence. They were both Columbia City residents for many years. Simon was the brother of James Peabody, who founded the Peabody Seating Company in 1903, a major employer of Manchester residents.

Visit the birthplace of Thomas Marshall this Saturday, October 3 from 1-4 pm. 409 North Market Street.
