I have fond memories of going to Eldridge Park during the 50's and 60's when visiting my grandparents who lived on Phoenix Avenue. My favorite ride was the Whip. I'd love to hear from others who loved the park during those years and am especially interested in pictures of the park/rides.

Another interest of mine is stories of the 1946 Flood as my 3 year old cousin, Donna Faye Gardner, was the only Elmira fatality.

Am looking forward to hearing from anyone who has memories to share.

Hello all, I dont know if this is the appropriate place for this or not, but here is goes. I have a sister that I just found out about that was born between 1950 and 1955. I know her name is Debbie Drake and her mother's name is Ann Starr. She may not know anything about me and my sisters and brother but I would love to get some info or have her contact me. Thanks for looking and hopefully someone can help me.

What a wonderful place to have been raised. Have lived in the south, on the west coast, midwest. For me there's nothing like the finger lakes region! I miss it!

Thanks for this great website. I am a 1963 graduate of EFA and have long since lost my copy of the yearbook. If anyone knows of a spare copy of the 1963 Torch - the one with the red cover - I would appreciate it. (I would, of course, pay a reasonable price and the cost of shipping.) I have tried the yearbook websites to no avail.

Hi, folk and fans of Elmira.
I am still hoping to find the children (if any) of Dennis and Laura Oconnor who entered the USA from over here (UK), in 1910. Their last address was--- 416, Baty St, Elmira, from 1946 to 1978.-- From 1934 to 1946 they lived at 106, South Ave. Any info would be helpful.
Best wishes to you all in Elmira.
Mike. (UK)

Hi everybody,
I was browsing through the Herring Family albums. In particular I was looking at the family businesses that they had. One picture looks like it is on the corner of State Street and Baldwin Street. If I'm not mistaken the business looks like it is at 171 Baldwin, that later became the M&M Bar and Grill. Next to the corner business it looks like a building that later became a barber shop. Can anyone confirm that for me? Irene

I'm actually looking for some old relatives from Elmira -two sisters who would be in their 30's now; probably graduated high school in late 80's or early 90's. One was Joellen and her sister (mabye?) was Kelly. I figured I would give it a try because Joellen isn't that common of a name. Thanks!

Me with my  niecesI left Elmira in 1959 and haven't visited much as my parents moved to Florida. I did come home in 2004 for my 50th EFA reunion and saw many friends. Elmira is beautiful but I don't miss the weather.

I am beginning to plan a trip that includes Elmira and would like to know if a 55 year reunion is being planned and if so, when. Hope to see some of my old classmates at that time.

AHHH! Home is where the heart is and mine is still in good old Elmira. I have never found another place quite like it. Still visit often and try to get to the lakes every couple of years. I hope everyone does not return for retirement and drive home prices up before I can get there. Thanx for the site!!
