Dear Friends: Having been born in White Oak and my dad likewise, perhaps I can shed some light and help clear confusion. There was both a stone and a historical marker by Ulms Garage and Center St./Lincoln Way Intersection. I can even remember when the put in the stop sign. The stone was knee high - appeared to be black marble with a bronze plaque marking where Washington and Braddock passed. The other sign was a standard PA. State Historical Society (PennDot) blue with yellow letters and was perhaps 8 ft. high. The second marker was moved when they redid the Duquesne Bridge (around 1958) and pared back the hill for the bridge as it is now configured. Unlike the sign on the Duquesne side of the bridge this marker marked where Queen Alliquippa was living when Washington came through. The sign also mentioned that this was the spot where Washington gave the Queen a 5th of rum or whiskey. It sat on a diagonal which today I can only say take a 55 degree angle from the McKeesport-Versailles Cemetery wall that runs along the Lysle Blvd side where it turns to run up the eastern side of the cemetery. If you are an old, old McKeesporter you might remember that there was an old fashioned 1920's style garage that operated into the 1950's and was the last building on your right on Rt. 148 before turning onto the ramp for the old bridge. Also, if you want a treat go into the cemetery and take the first available road or path on your left and read some of the grave stones. They are among the oldest in the area and have markers from the original opening of the Cemetery. Finally and this truly dates me. I have a picture of the old Interurban Streetcar going along what is now Lincoln Way in White Oak on its way to Irwin and the Greensburg and I think Latrobe. This was during the time that you take an Interurban from McKeesport and actually get to Chicago via street car. FYI - If you look carefully and with a good eye you can see where the old roadbeds were - they are almost totally gone the last time I was in McKeesport - but I remember my dad carefully pointing out the road bed at various points on Lincoln Way and out Long Run. With this I'll shut up - has anyone been to the White Barn Theatre lately? Marc Marc M. G. Stauffer
