Harry L. Leonard was a Camden-born funeral director and World War I veteran who opened his own funeral parlor at 120 South 27th Street in 1927, later moving to 2850 Federal Street, and ran for Camden County Coroner in 1936.
27th Street runs from the Delaware River through Cramer Hill and East Camden to Marlton Avenue. Originally called Fulton Street before the 1899 annexation of Stockton Township, it was one of the main thoroughfares of the neighborhood and home to football star Mike Rozier.
