Potomac Street. The grocery operation was run by Mr. Werntz&#039;s brother-in-law, Malachi &quot;Mutt&quot; Roelnick.<br /> <br /> (From the Myer Kaplon Photo Collection at the Brunswick Community Library; Frederick County Public Libraries)<br /> <br /> David Tuwiner: The house I live on Brunswick Street was built by Mr. Werntz. He purchased the land from foreclosure, subdivided the property and had my home built by 1920. I once saw an old FNP article that had a passage mentioning that H.N. Wentz &amp; His wife Molly were visited by their nephew on Bridge street which is now Virginia Avenue. If you look at the chain of title you see that they once owned that home. It has been a while but I think the Cannons lived at that home years later. I believe Mr. Wentz began to stay in the Jordan house after he moved his family to Baltimore. He would stay in Brunswick during the week and then go to Baltimore during the weekend on a train.<br /> <br /> [[Category:Smoketown Businesses]]</div>
