A Green Family page has been added to Family Events. The Greens lived on Furnace street and worked at Westmoreland Malleable Iron, as did my grandfather Thomas Coyne and his brother Frank Coyne. My farther, Bernard, grew up there in a house across the street from the Greens.
My mothers sister, Elizabeth Ann Calkins married Ray Barron and his sister Joan married Pete Green. I was at Westmoreland Central at the same time, but not class, as Dale.
The furnace is gone now, replaced by a basketball court. Many home in the area used the burnt sand, or pickle, as fill around their houses. The bridge on Sucker Brook failed and was not replaced so Furnace Street is now a dead end but the entrance to the pool is halfway down on the left.
