Russ Thomas
From 1928 until 1956, the home at 140 E. State St. in Doylestown was owned by Allen Russell Thomas and his wife, Helen. Russ was a reporter and sports editor of the Daily Intelligencer for 40 years. Described as a newspaperman of the old school, he would write election stories at home and drive to Philadelphia to file them with the Philadelphia Inquirer, Evening Bulletin, Philadelphia Record and Public Ledger. Then he would be back in Doylestown at daybreak to begin his duties with the Intel.
