~ 1887 REAL ESTATE ~
Philadelphia Lawyer, Henry J. Scott purchased 50 acres of property from the George G. Knowles Farm in mid 1887. He laid out streets and lots and called the area "Llanwellyn", Welsh for "Spring has come". Scott{1855-1932} sold the lots till his death. After his death part of the undeveloped property became the basis for Glenolden Park. Sales are shown here only till 1894 when Glenolden became a Boro.
