Sources
The material for Streets of Stratford was largely taken from the Stratford Beacon Herald series called “Streets of Stratford” written by Stanford Dingman in the early 1980s. It took him more than four years to do all 180 Streets. Other historical information of the streets and pictures were added from the following sources and from direct contact with Stratford residents.
