For village residents, the name Edward (Ed) Rondthaler will be forever synonymous with Croton-on-Hudson. You can read more about him here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Rondthaler
Some years ago, Rondthaler donated his scrapbooks to The Croton Historical Society. Filled with newspaper clippings, some notes and photos, they are a time capsule of village life...and as promised, Everything Croton and the trusty elves will be sharing some of these pages with you throughout 2015. Here's Part 3 in no particular order; click on the images below, mainly from the early 1960's.

So many people here only knew Ed when he was already old but in his younger days he was very much a force to be reckoned with in so many different ways. Saving all this so that future generations could enjoy it was just one of his many talents.
