Seller's description:

4 1/2 by 2 1/2 inches, "compliments of Tidewater Coal & Supply Co., H.B. Ferber, President, Hackansack, NJ." with 1923 and 1924 calendars. has all sorts of information in front, then date pages. Man went to work for Corbin Sedan Co., and last half filled in with information about how he traveled and how much spent. for example on October 23rd, he went, "Long Island run - about car ferry 60 cents." fascinating.


One of the entries is for Charles Goddard of 15 Linden St - the man who owned the 1908 diary that the same seller has up for auction. 15 Linden is across the street from Comfort Coal. Is there a connection between Tidewater Coal and Comfort Coal?

Question:  I'm wondering if Tidewater Coal is the company that later became Tidewater Sand & Gravel.  Tidewater Sand & Gravel was replaced by Pep Boys on South River Street in the early 1990's. 

I think that Tidewater Sand & Gravel was connected with Tidewater Development, which built the Excelsior I and Excelsior II high-rises.  The owner was Anthony Palmieri.

If all this speculation is indeed true, can someone please advise.
