WARTIME CROTON: 1945, MORE LETTERS BACK HOME

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

Our recent posting from March of 1945--a letter from resident Bill Portchmouth--with mention of Pop Berger--had such an amazing response, we've tracked down more "Wartime Letters Back Home" by overwhelming request. You can see Portchmouth's letter again here http://bit.ly/1z4c7di 

And of course, this is only possible thanks to the outstanding archives maintained by the volunteers of the Croton Historical Society--and the E.C. elves who pull it all together for posting. Click on the photos below to read letters found in the April 1945 editions of the Croton-on-Hudson News from Lt. Irma E. Bruns; William Jacoby; Pfc Joseph Campanelo; Margaret E. Parsons; Emily Sullivan
