southern Connecticut.

Is there a northern connecticut? The whole state is only about 60
miles from the Long Island Sound to the Mass border at it's widest
point. It is more like 45-50 from where you lived.

When I was a kid, it was a three hour drive from New Haven to the
Boston suburbs, where my grandparents lived. The only way there was
the old Merritt Parkway as far in Connecticut as it went, and then
commercial state highways from there to the outskirts of Boston.
These days, of course, it takes less time. We never went straight
north into Massachusetts because we didn't have any relatives in
that part of the state. The best way to get from New Haven to Boston
back then was on the train. Great train ride. Still is.

I believe your relatives are from Revere. Revere has close ties to
the North
End but it is not Boston.

My relatives on both sides of the family lived in the Boston area,
including Boston proper, Revere, Salem, and other sites within the
SMSA. I also had relatives who lived in New York City and in the
Philly area. In fact, my father's parents first lived in Elkins Park,
a Philly suburb, before they moved to Boston and then Revere. My
mother's parents lived in Boston proper their entire time in the USA.
So, as usual, you jumped to the wrong conclusions. My dad's parents
moved from Philly to Revere to manage a couple of small stores my
grandfather's brother owned in partnership with other relatives in the
New Haven area. After my dad graduated from college in Philly, he went
to work for his uncle, my grandfather's brother, as a regional manager
and then as the manager of several stores in New Jersey, including
Atlantic City, where he met my mother and got married. I was conceived
in AC, but then my parents relocated to Wallingford, CT, and then New
Haven, where my dad opened a machine shop with his brother and did
work for the government during the war. After the war, my dad opened
his first boat dealership in New Haven.

And you, you don't even know who your daddy was, I'd bet.

Nothing useful there. Just a waste of bandwidth.

Heh heh...as I said, I know who my daddy was. You don't know who your
daddy was.

Now you're talking like a 5 year old
