"Norwood, Her Homes and Her People"

by Ren Mulford, Jr., and Werter G. Betty,
Norwood's first official historians

Page 57 — "BOFINGER & HOPKINS"

Page 57 of the book "NORWOOD, HER HOMES AND HER PEOPLE" was an advertisement for the Bofinger & Hopkins company. Augustus G. Bofinger and Lewis G. Hopkins were the principals of the company. They listed the names of many people whose homes were built by B&H in one of the several B&H subdivisions in Norwood. In the ad, it is said that the total value of these properties was $1,174,629.25 or over $6,000 each; today, their value would be ten to forty times that. The following is that page, reformatted for this site to simulate the layout of the original.
