1914: CENTENNIAL OF WORLD WAR I.

1914 MARKS THE CENTENNIAL OF THE START OF WORLD WAR I. 
There will be a number of World War I posts on this website during this centennial year of the start of  what was known as "The war to end all wars."
My brother, the late William"Bud" Glover was a Hamilton High class of 1945 classmate of Don Whiteley who has a fabulous website (donremembers.blogspot.com) dedicated to Yardville Heights wherein he recalls memories of growing up in that beautiful elevated community on the banks of the Crosswicks Creek. The news article above would be Don's dad, who was among those who went into World War I military service, along with David McGalliard, another family with an historic heritage.

Hi Laura:
I went to my July 1, 1918 Trenton Times and there was no photo of your grandmother. I probably had an earlier or later edition and the photo was not included. The Newkirk Avenue Feehan family were very special people. My wife's family at 24 Newkirk Avenue were friends of a number of the girls. Lorraine is a special friend. Not from Newkirk Avenue, but Chet was a classmate of my brother Len at HHS 1942.
