Addressed to John Lewis Childs, Floral Park N. Other first day covers from this era are addressed to Childs, who has his own wiki page. Childs was a Republican member of the New York State Senate in 1894 and 1895. He also established Flowerfield, which still exists today as a wedding venue, around 1909 -- the same year as this First Day Cover. Childs died aboard a New York Central train from Albany to NYC in 1921. Child's ornate 18 room Victorian house in Floral Park was demolished in 1850.
