| Occupation |
Between 1910 and 1912 |
Bressmer's Department Store, Springfield, Sangamon Co, Illinois |
- as indicated in 1907 city directory, Will was working as a window dresser at Bessemer's, as was a Nellie Moyer (?). As stated in his memooirs (see Yellowed Pages, by Elizabeth Deaton Moyer), "Will's brother-in-law, Lee Crutcher, got Will a job at Bressemer's Department Store as electrician, Window trimmer, and elevator operator."
...and..
"Rose Snider worked at Bressemer's Department Store in Springfield in the gift wrapping department and at the cosmetics counter. She met Will Moyer when he was working there. They saw each other at work only." Guessing she wouldn't have started working there before age 16, so between 1910 and 1912 when they married.

Bressmer Department Store
the John Bressmer Co.
It was located at 631 E. Adams Street in downtown Springfield. Opened a store in 1977 to White Oaks Mall but soon changed named and then bought out by probably Dillards who closed the store. The downtown store closed in 1980, as well. |

1930 Texas, Jefferson County, Beaumont census
Moyer family at 294 St. Anthony Ave. The house numbering does not go this low anymore. But from looking at the 1937 Street Guide, it says St. Anthony Avenue goes from Schwarner south to Doucette, 1 block west of Irving Ave. So, apparently it was close to the corner of St.Anthony at Schwarner. However, Tilson is inbetween St. Anthony and Irving. They were only in this place a short time anyway.
