They said " who are you calling?' In the beginning on the phone era, they only had party lines. Each area had to share the same number. So your neighbor would of had the same number as you.

Their number. "Greenfield 331" or something. Back then people said their area "Greenfield" followed by their specific phone number "331." Today you would answer, "655-5331."
