Taylor Public Library

📬✨ Postcard from the Past ✨📬

This week’s feature takes us back to 1911, highlighting Taylor Garage, once located at 218 E. Second Street.

As transportation shifted from horse drawn carriages to motor vehicles, garages like this evolved from carriage related services into essential hubs for repairing, fueling, storing, and even selling early automobiles.

📬✨ Postcard from the Past ✨📬

This week’s feature honors the dedicated individuals who cared for our community.

This postcard highlights the nurses of Wedemeyer Hospital in the 1940s, once located at 920 W. 7th Street. Their commitment and compassion helped shape the foundation of healthcare in Taylor.

Do you recognize any of these nurses? Is there a healthcare professional in your family? We’d love to hear your stories!
