DECEMBER 1932 IN CROTON, MARGARET SANGER, BARONESS SHIDZUE ISHIMOTO & MORE

Welcome to The New Everything Croton, a collection of all things Croton-on-Hudson: our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools, our houses of worship -- in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.

BY SPECIAL REQUEST, A REPEAT:

COURTESY OF THE OUTSTANDING ARCHIVES MAINTAINED BY THE VOLUNTEERS OF THE CROTON HISTORICAL SOCIETY: "LOCAL NEWS ITEMS: DECEMBER 1932 IN CROTON".

Click on the images. There's lots of familiar old Crotonite names in here--the Harmon Community Club too--and there's an excerpt about a visit by Margaret Sanger too--and Baroness Shidzue Ishimoto of Tokyo. (In recent years, Sanger---an advocate for women's birth control issues, etc.---has come under fire for a number of reasons, including  Eugenics, etc.....please keep those comments reserved for sites other than this one.)  For more about the Baroness Ishimoto, CLICK HERE
