Cable's Cattle Market
Aerial view of Cable's Cattle Market
This photo was taken in 1953 in Roxbury, Delaware Co., NY. It was located on Main Street and is now the site of an Antique Shop and is also now part of Carriage House Hill Road. The house now looks a bit different and only a part of the original main barn is still standing. My parents operated Cable's Cattle Market for several years. Auctions were held every Friday. I have a lot of happy memories of these. --Patricia Wright

Sales area in main barn

And this is the sales area of the main barn, where the auctions were held in the Spring of 1953. The men handling the cow in the center are Merlin Cable, my father ( on the left) and his brother, Robert Cable ( on the right).
