The 1914-1915 American Motion Picture Directory lists an Orpheum Theatre at Williston, but gives the address as 46 Main Street, an address that does not appear on any Sanborn maps, and the adjacent and nearby addresses had buildings not suitable for use as a theater on 1913 and 1916 Sanborn maps. The 1916 Sanborn map (but not 1913) shows “Moving Pictures” in a building at 108 Main Street. The same building was still occupied by a movie house on the 1926 map, so I’m thinking that must be the correct address of the Orpheum. The 0 and the 8 in the address might have gotten transposed when the theater was submitted to Cinema Treasures.
The Orpheum Theatre in Williston was mentioned in the May 22, 1926, issue of Motion Picture News:
