Celebrating the End of the War in Stevensville, PA
O happy day! In a celebration from yesteryear, eight Stevensville youngsters
marched around the neighborhood banging pots, shaking sleigh bells and
waving American flags in celebration of the end of World War II. They include
(left to right): Marlene Smith Gregg, Marcella Jayne Whitney, Dorothy Wilkinson
Layton, Musette Jayne Kingsley, Philip Pease, Charles Pease, Beryl Smith
St. Clair and Luke Vande Mark. The photo was sent to us by Dorothy Layton
of Laurel, MD, who said the date was probably Sept. 2 or 3, 1945, to celebrate
V-J Day (Victory of Japan). Submitted by Carol Hoose Brotzman |
