  • 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…

    Art   I used to received your blogs regarding Trenton's Jewish community and 1 that I remember was from a Trentonian author that was living in New Zealand in which he mentioned an illegal liquor "still" in the period of Prohibition built by his uncle on Union St.   I figured he was referring to the still that was built to my mother's brother, my uncle, Abe Byer, next door to my grandfather's (and later my father's) hardware store at 63 Union St. and came to the conclusion that he was the New Zeeland's person uncle by was of his wife.

However, they did it on a much larger scale. Trenton was known for its ‘downtown.’ Between Willow and City Hall, there were 100’s of stores, both small and large.
