Born in Barbados, West Indies, Mr. Crawford came

motorman for a predecessor company of the old Cleveland Transit
System. He recalled driving an open horsecar from the barns at
Lorain Avenue and W. 98th Street to Woodland Avenue S. E.
Opens Market
Later he worked in the stockyards and
then opened his market at 9117 Lorain Avenue. The store gained
a reputation for corned beef which brought customers from as far as
Cleveland Heights.
Mr. Crawford owned the business until two years
ago. Now known as Henry's Market, it is owned by Henry
Naujoks, who began working there for Mr. Crawford at 14.
Breeding and showing dogs, chiefly Airedales, and
raising canaries provided a hobby for Mr. Crawford in his
later years.
