I am looking for any information and pictures of the depot in Oneida. I remember it as a two or three story gray building. My grandfather, William A. Scales, worked out of that depot at least during two different periods. He was there in 1913, as my father was born in Oneida, and again in 1920 as I found the family there on the 1920 census. In between he may have worked in the west. If anyone knows what may have happened to the records it would be welcome information. I know he was with Southern Railway as a lineman. I would be grateful for any and all help. Thank you in advance. Smiles, Marilyn -- What sunshine is to flowers, smiles are to humanity. These are but trifles, to be sure; but, scattered along life's pathway, the good they do is inconceivable. ~ Joseph Addison (1672-1719)
