SPRING 1945: CROTON BROTHERS MEET IN LONDON & CROTON ROTARIANS SWEAR IN A WAC

Welcome to EverythingCroton, a collection of all things Croton--our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools--in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.

We've always been fascinated with World War II, the events that led up to it, and that final year in 1945 when Germany and Japan surrendered. Over the next few months, we'll feature newspaper items culled from the Spring and Summer of 1945, courtesy of THE CROTON HISTORICAL SOCIETY. Click on the images below for two articles:
