Welcome to Everything Croton, a collection of all things Croton--our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools, our houses of worship---in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.
With the news that the 2022 Summerfest is back, we've had the annual request:
A reader is a big fan of the British television series--CALL THE MIDWIFE. For those who don't know, Call the Midwife is a BBC period drama series about a group of nurse midwives working in the East End of London in the late 1950s and 1960s. The first series, set in 1957, premiered in the United Kingdom on 15 January 2012. YOU CAN READ MORE ABOUT IT AT https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Call_the_Midwife
FAST FORWARD to the recent request: if there were any photos a "local midwife business" that dressed in character from the BCC series and "marched in a Summerfest parade".
Indeed there are! JOURNEY TO BIRTH MIDWIFERY was based in the Upper Village; one of the midwives was Susan Schmidt, the wife of former mayor Dr. Gregory Schmidt.
Click on the photos below from Summerfests 2015 and 2014 featuring the midwives and more from JOURNEY TO BIRTH (NO LONGER ACTIVE to our knowledge) in their BBC series character attire. The t.v. series, assorted seasons, is available on Amazon.
