Dunmoyle Street
From Pittsburgh Streets
This street was originally named Daum Street for S. F. Daum, who lived at the southwest corner of its intersection with Wilkins Avenue.[1]
In 1897, a city ordinance renamed it Dunmoyle Avenue (despite the title of the ordinance saying "Dunmoyle street").[2] It officially became Dunmoyle Street in 1910.[3]
