The Halton Telephone Company by Cecil Patterson

In the early part of the last century telephone service was provided by the Bell Telephone Company but rural areas were poorly served. This provided an opportunity for entrepreneurs to form local telephone companies. The Halton Telephone Company was one of these smaller companies. Many of our local farmers were lineman for the company. Join us as we hear about this little known and almost forgotten part of our history.
