Photos on 1960s Part 1. The building still had the sign with the name of the congregation! As you say, the building was sold, unrecognizable on Google Earth. Thanks for posting! Any idea where the photo came from? |

I thought Michael Casciotta was in the picture (second from left on top row.) He was not in St. Rita School then. Can anyone solve the mystery as to who was the other graduate? Names of the other nine boys are listed with the picture. |

Or even near to Jamaica Avenue? It looks like it to me. I can't tell about the other un-id's, though. Judy |

Marwede's was the name of the later Ess** Tavern, and it was a bar/tavern and caterers (my uncle was a regular customer of the ET, when Dave and Sam were the bartenders in the '50s and '60s), but no one ever spoke about the ca. 1930 miniature golf setup there, and my family was on Linwood Street around the corner since 1922. |
