Y | Whalen, JM | I was born in Griffin Hospital, Derby, in 1945. At that time, my family was living @ 196 Hawkins Street, Derby. I attended Lincoln School, on E. Ninth Street, from 1950 to about 1953, when my family moved to Milford. Back then, we and several of our neighbors had chicken coops in the back yard, a steel drum for burning trash outside, and we walked almost everyplace we went. Even though it was the mid-20th century, the house on Hawkins Street had NO FURNACE (it was built around 1900), and was heated by a big kerosene fired stove in the kitchen. Although we didn't use it, there was a little well with the traditional bucket out in the side yard. Those were very pleasant, simple times. Going to see Santa Claus at Howard & Barber's store, going swimming at "State Park" which was what we called Indian Wells. Going to movies at the Commodore Hull theater on Elizabeth Street in Derby. Now living in Ansonia | |
