Tamaqua Underpants Company picnic at Shellhammer's Dam in South Tamaqua. ....Good time to put it out there since the weather has warmed up.....Grandmother Stella Williams worked there and is 3rd row and 2nd in from the right...Believe this may have evolved into Tami Manufacturing in the East End of Tamaqua....She was born in 1910.

Walking along the rail trail, is a plaque for Shellhammer's. Looks like it was quite the place to be back in the day; had the pool still be there in the 80s.
