The residence of Mr. and Mrs. Bull was approximately 901 Second Street in an impressive home in an upscale neighborhood. The neighborhood has changed over the years.

Growing up in Pocomoke in the 1940's and 1950's I remember the home where the Bulls resided on the corner of Second Street and Dudley Avenue. My family lived on Dudley.  At that time the neighborhood in general was more "average" than upscale.
