I'm new to the group; thanks to Lynne Coane Brofman. Thanks for the invite. Love seeing all the photos, and the familiar. My grandparents The Shippers from Berkeley Avenue owned Stacy Laundry, and Sanitary Linen Supply on Ward Avenue. My Savannah connection is my late Aunt Charlotte Shipper Garfunkel who moved to Savannah after her marriage. My gazillion cousins are all still there. The connection between my family and so many of the posted photos is simply awesome. My brothe…

My family in Wilkes-Barre was poor. This is what we used to cut the grass till the end of the 70s.

Good memories.

Thank you once again. I read the article on the history of Trenton with great interest. I did not grow up in Trenton, but I still have an attachment to the city as I graduated from TCHS and Trenton Junior College continuing on at Murray State University in Murray, Kentucky earning a B.S. and an M.S. in Biology. I was employed at Merck and Novartis before retiring. I then did consulting for Pfizer, Forrest, and Schering, working in Pharmaceutical Toxicology. 

 

A little additional information on the Hafetz family. David Hafetz came from a family of butchers. At retirement David (wife Ida), gave the Market Street shop to Frank wife (Nettie) and Joe (wife Esther) as you did write. Joe left the business and ran a metal recycling facility in Pennsylvania. Frank ran the butcher shop until his early death and his wife Nettie continued running the shop. The third son of David and Ida was Morris (wife Florence), who was a practicing physician in Trenton with an office on Centre Street. My mother Rebecca Evans (husband Leo), was a sister to Nettie.  A third sister living in Trenton was Lillian Kaplow, married to Sam (Kappy) Kaplow.


 

Wow memories

My parents were members. As a child, my sister and I spent a lot of time at the pool. My father spent many a Wednesday and Saturday afternoon on the golf course.

Where my family started in Trenton in the 1880s. I believe we one the first Jewish families to move "west" to Hermitage Ave (with an interim stop on Warren St ... above their liitle "corner" store). But I'm sure they must have continued to shop and p…
