The Roberts family moved from Palmdale to the Stratfield Hotel in Bridgeport, Ct, to a three-bedroom house in Stratford, Ct, where the Roberts family kids went to school for the beginning of fall semester.

We moved to Walnut Ave., Reading, MA, during Christmas break. During Christmas break, we moved to Andover Avenue in Lawrence, MA.

I have often been asked about my ability to cope with so many moves. The Roberts family was part of a "fifty-family relocation move" so I was never alone. It was like being on a large cruise ship.

Stratford

Stratford, Ct, is a town in Fairfield County, Connecticut, United States. It is situated on Long Island Sound at the mouth of the Housatonic River.

New York City was about 90 miles to the west-south-west. It was about two hours by the 'New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad'[Note 1] train, while the drive time was ninety minutes to three hours depending on the time of day and traffic.

In the 1950's, Stratford had a population of just under 50,000 people.

Stratford is about eight miles east of Bridgeport, CT.

  1. I really enjoyed the crisp blue and white train cars of the 'New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad'
