Talk:Philadelphia, Missouri

Should this still be a stub? And history for $200 anyone?

edit

According to the Wiki definitions, I think it's no longer a stub. Palmyra's entry is about the same size.

I'd like to get a table of contents (TOC) and geographic info. Something similar to but much simplier than the Quincy page. WIKI may do the TOC - sounds vaguely familiar...

I think I can come up with some of the geographic data, but if anyone knows where the center of town is and has a GPS unit, that'd get the longitude, latitude and altitude.

I think history would be a good place to start, for example, I have no idea who the Glascock's were or who Pearl was?

Pearl Glascock owned a Shell gas Station in Philadelphia for about 60 years. He lived in a large 2 story brick house that was made of brick from the old Philadelphia college. Before the town had electricty, he had a generator that furnished power to the town. Mr Glascock died in 1976. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.47.105.152 (talk) 03:58, 15 September 2007 (UTC)Reply
