This photo from the Birmingham Public Library's Digital Collections shows the home of Wellington Prude McAdory, M.D., in 1910. The structure was located at the corner of 11th Avenue and 25th Street.
Dr. McAdory's home also included his office and an infirmary, a common setup for physicians of this era.
His photo and biographical information below are taken from Notable Men of Alabama Volume II, published in 1904 and available online via Google Books.
