The Waltham Directory MASSACHUSETTS


1934-1935


Containing


Alphabetical Section (page 165). Gives names, occupations and addresses of all men and women eighteen years old or over and all business houses. Dates of deaths during the previous year are given, and where possible, the addresses of people who have moved to other cities. The names of partners in firms are given in this department (the wife's name being in parentheses) also incorporated companies and their officers with much other information that cannot be found elsewhere.


Business Directory (page 553.) All business houses, individuals in business for themselves, and professional men are listed without charge under the heading that best describes them. The more progressive houses, realizing that it pays to be easily found, pay a nominal charge for special listings in heavy type, under every heading where a buyer might look for them, cross-indexed to a descriptive space in the "reference section."


Street, House and Home Owners Directory (Pink Section) (page 449). A complete list of Streets, showing location of intersecting streets, and enabling one to tell at once between what streets a given number lies, and the quickest way to get there.


All Householders and Places of Business are arranged in numerical order upon their respective Streets. The Streets are arranged in alphabetical order.


A NEW FEATURE: HOMES OWNED BY OCCUPANTS INDICATED BY SYMBOLO


(Note: this information is as given to our canvassers, and is not guaranteed by us. It should be of value as an indication, but not taken as legal proof of title.)


Advertising Department (page 65). Where more information than is possible to give under the headings is placed on file for buyer's reference. The value of this department can- not be estimated. It is an index of the best business interests of the city, and stands for them and the city in reference libraries all over the country, as well as on the desks of progressive business men. It is accessible to everybody, and the logical place to look for specific information. This probably explains why no other form of publicity is so gen- erally endorsed by business men, as a glance at this department will show.


Map (opposite). The clearest map ever made of the city, on a scale large enough to see and small enough to be handled easily.


Miscellaneous Information (page 6). Organization of City Departments, giving officers- Post Office branches-Parcel Post zones and rates-Institutions, etc., with officers- Courts-Population tables,-Calendar, etc.

Historical Outline


Situated on the beautiful Charles River, nine miles to the west of Boston, the rich and fertile plain on which stands the present city of Waltham was called Eden Vale by the earliest settlers.


In 1738 this area, which then comprised the Western Precinct of the town of Watertown, was incorporated as a separate town and named Waltham, but it was not until the establishment of a paper mill in 1788 that it became anything more than an agri- cultural community.
