Does anyone recognize the intersection?

Waldo, I have an original of that same picture that is in my Hottinger collection.  When looking at it you are looking East on the street on the South side of the Courthouse. The house on the Left is the Bud and Ruth Barber house, the house on the right is on the lot where the Goodwin house was built in later years. The 3rd house on the right is the Hanna house which was torn down and Ralph and Zora Perkins built a new home on that lot in the 60s. Will look up the street names and post them.

Waldo. that picture is the corner of Randolph and Cedar

That would be looking east on Randolph with street fore of the houses being Cedar.  Picture looks to be taken from the courthouse drive or between it and Pine.

Got the orientation.

That house on the left on Cedar has been torn down in recent years. The house to its immediate east on Randolph needs to be torn down.

To the left of that house on Cedar a business garage of some type has been erected. Never have heard what the purpose is.

The house on the left would be what they call the Helms house now, Debbie Helms was the last Helms owner. The garage built to the east of that on Randolph and alley is not a business but a personal garage!!

Waldo, I mentioned that the house on the left was the Bud and Ruth Barber house, Ruth was a sister to Roy Rogers.

Holy Cow:

It has to be a small world.

Waldo, not the Leonard Slye  one though.

Glad you explained that.

I did look up Slye's family before I posted. I think he was from a large family and there did not seem to be his entire family listed.
