In 1906, the staff and patients at Greenwich General Hospital enjoyed a bountiful Christmas.

 

In 1914, the people of Greenwich were urged to shop early -and you'll learn why. (Hint: Some things never change).

 


Milo Mead, the 'Sage of New Lebanon' and likewise known for his opinions, spoke out via the Greenwich Graphic in 1899.

 

 



In 1916, a trolley conductor fell out -causing women to scream. No one was reportedly hurt. 

 

Also in 1916, Charles A. Moore's car rolled down Greenwich Avenue crashing into a barbershop.

 



Crimes and Misdemeanors is the show segment on -you guess right- crimes in Greenwich's history.

 

We'll have all this -and more- as our history continues to unfold.

When and why were numbered addresses designated in Greenwich?


In 1906, the Selectmen required dogs to be muzzled.


Santa paid a visit to the Bethel African Methodist Episcopal Church on Lake Avenue, bringing good cheer and smiles.
