Time Travel: Demolition of One of Bridgeport's Iconic Churches and Visiting Moorefield's McNeill Hotel
By Dick Duez on May 17, 2015 from History Blog via Connect-Bridgeport.com
For year's, the All Saints Catholic Church was situated at this site on the corner of Philadelphia and Main Street before it was demolished. This photo was taken in 1993 and was a bittersweet day as my wife Norma and I were married in this building.

Although this photo said "about 1854," it's probably in the range of not quite a century later. The photo shows the Motel McNeill located in Moorefield. Is anyone familiar with this hotel's past? If so, please comment below.
