Ironton Ohio Memorial Day Parade Photo – ca1946
While this looks like a scene from “It’s A Wonderful Life,” it is the Ironton Memorial Day parade. No date on the photo but this is likely the 1946 parade. What makes the picture so special for our family is that our Dad is pictured among the military marchers home from WWII. Ironton’s parade is the nation’s oldest continuously running Memorial Day parade, a tradition since 1868. Cool representation of patriotic Americana. Photo Courtesy Connie Dziagwa

We hear of foreign people becoming citizens of U.S. but here is a little different story.

Haven’t heard of this before and thought maybe some of you might be interested in this fact also. Photo is F.K. Brown’s Grandmother.
