Hi Skip.
First let me tell you how great the website is. I have found so many
people who remember my parents and one remembers me as a little boy. We
moved to North Woodmere in 1958 so I only spent a month at PS 156.I drive
through Laurelton on occasion when in New York and it is still a very well kept
up town. I agree with the article in The New York Times to upgrade the
shops and Restaurants on Merrick road. I was looking for a Starbucks on
Merrick road, shocked that I could not find one. I live in Salt Lake City
now.
We lived at 130-28 229th street. We moved because the house was owned by
my grandmother who was getting sick and needed money for her care. My
parents also wanted their own house. Next door to us at 130-30 lived The Gold
Family. They had a daughter Beth. I used to play with her. I
have an old 8mm movie (now on dvd) of my birthday party in 1957 in the house in
Laurelton with Beth in the movie.
All I know is that The Gold's moved to The Riverdale section of The Bronx.
One of their sons became a doctor. I would love to find Beth. Is
there any help you can give me? She is not on the website but perhaps
people on the website have stayed in touch with her. Thank you in advance
for any assistance you might be able to provide. Happy Thanksgiving.

Hi,
My name then was Joan Rubin. I’m looking for people in my 5th grade class.
Marilyn Feldman, Martin Feldman, Richard Schlosberg – to name a few. Do these
names ring a bell? They would be around 62 years old now.
Thank you,

HI Skip, Found this site once again after meeting with 4 other Laureltonite';s yesterday after 45 years. I'd like to update my listing- I;ve since married and moved and would love to find someone from long ago. I was Pam Raven, married and became Lippman and am now Pam Raven Lippman Laminsky. I currently reside in Port sT. Lucie Florida and Monroe Township NJ. I graduated Jackson in 64 and my mom was a teacher there after we graduated and was president of the PTA at one point. I am looking for Paula Greenbaum. She lived in Cambria Heights and was in the SP with me at 59. I was told she married Carmine Oliveri., but have been unable to track her down. Her father was a boy scout leader. If anyone has any info I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks for your great work.

Skip,
I was searching for a 1951 phone book for Laurelton, NY and came up with your
website. Perhaps you can help me. I am searching for the party below and have
tried asking several genealogy groups and several libraries for their help. I'm
getting nowhere - in fact, one library offered to do the research at $60. hour
or any part of the hour - way above my budget. I'm surprised by the lack of help
from the New Yorkers and glad that isn't the policy in other parts of the US or
even in other parts of New York state. Helen Drake was my 1st cousin once
removed and I believe she moved to NY as it says below and may have even died
there. She is the only key I have in my attempt to locate more relatives who
lived in New York at one time. I'd be so pleased if you or someone you know of
could help.
Helen Drake
living at 138-48 231st Street, Laurelton, Long Island, New York in 1951. She
would have been about 64 at the time. There may or may not have been a Charles
Francis Drake, (son) born in Illinois about 1908 or Kathleen Anna Drake,
(daughter) born in Illinois about 1910 living with her. These are her two
children.
I would be grateful for this information as well but it is not that important.
What kind of building was at this address, such as an apartment complex, etc?
Thanks,

Hi Skip,
My parents moved into our home at 135-08 227th St two months before I was born
in 1952. We lived there until I graduated from Springfield Gardens High School
in 1970. After attending PS 156 from K-6th grade, I was in the transition class
at JH 59 when it turned from 7-9th grade to a 6-8 and was in the first 9th grade
at the new Springfield Gardens High School. Saturday mornings found me at the
Laurelton Theater watching the movie with the matron in the white coat and
flashlight keeping us in order. I’d then go to the pizza place on the corner of
227th and Merrick Rd to have a slice and a drink all for a quarter. Mrs.
Goldschmidt was my fifth and sixth grade teacher. I now live in Portland Oregon
and teach a second/third grade mixed age class of wonderfully diverse children-
I have ten languages in my classroom. I’ve been trying to find three friends
from my Laurelton days but have been unsuccessful. Does anyone know how I can
contact Arlene Gottesfeld, Mary Stabile, and Ellen Shaddock (sp)? Arlene and
Ellen lived in Laurelton and Mary lived in Rosedale. I know Mary lived in Mass
for a while and I think moved to the South. Arlene lived in San Antonio, TX for
many years but no longer lives there- I heard she might have returned to NY. The
last time I connected with Ellen she still lived in NY. I’ll be in NY in mid
January 2010 so I would love to be able to reconnect with them. Thanks for
hosting this site- it’s wonderful to hear about all these Laurelton memories.
Take care,

Good Evening,
Sorry for the intrusion. I need a little help. My father's name is Frederick
Brown and from what I have been told, he attended Andrew Jackson High School. He
graduated sometime in the '60's. I have not seen him since 1978. I am trying to
find him and I was wondering if anyone knew him. He also worked at the Post
Office for a number of years. He may have even retired from there. He had a
sister named Vanessa, who has passed away. Please contact me via email if you
have any recollection of attending high school with him.
Thank you in advance.

A few Laurelton Buddies from the 1960's got together and came up with names of
our fellow classmates in PS 156. We all graduated in June, 1965. Can you please
post this message we would like to see what old classmates will get in contact
with us.
Thanks,

The Decade Was The 1960's...........The Place Laurelton, Queens. We had great
times and we were to young to figure out that town would be home even though
most of us moved away. Remember Weekends at The Laurelton Movies......Our First
Library Cards at the Queens Public Library Laurelton Branch? Most of us had
friends that are like family and the relationships are still going strong all
these years later...........
PS 156 - Remember the class trips to Museums, Ferry Rides and The World's Fair?
The weekly class punch-ball game! The Friday afternoon free time to make models
and listen to records. These things don't happen anymore......But PS 156 made us
some great memories. Unfortunately all school pictures are gone a casualty of
the move out of Laurelton in 1970's. If anyone has the class pictures from 1965
graduating class, please post them.

Skip, I happened upon your site by absolute pure accidental
serendipity. What a kick to spend several hours reading through all the
remembrances. I attended p.s. 176 from 1949-52. And then we moved to Phoenix due
to my mother’s arthritis. As I scrolled thru the posts and found some from alums
of 176, I couldn’t believe my eyes when I happened upon someone who listed my
home address as theirs from 1952… obviously her family bought the home from
mine! I emailed her but the post came back as an email address no longer
working. She did say in her post that she was packed and was going to be moving.
So, what a kick it would be to be able to connect with her. Her name is Shelley
Levine and the address was 128-15 236th Street.
Is there a way I can put a call out to see if she is still checking the site?
Thanks,

Hello,
I grew up in Laurelton, on 217th and 131st ave from the mid 60's through the
late 80's and now live in Tampa Florida.
I attended St. Mary Madeline Catholic School until they shut their doors in
1974. My teachers was Mrs Lee in Kindergarden (at the Annex) Sister Shelia and
Mrs Fadin (sp?).
I was wondering if any other former St. Mary students remember a child named
Ricardo. I unfortunately can't recall his last name. He was an African American
boy of about 10 or 11 years old who delivered the evening paper on his bike.
Ricardo (Ricky) hung out with my older brothers, Mark and Timmy and of all of
their friends, Ricardo was the most tolorant of me. He was very patient for a
pesky kid sister who always wanted to hang around the big boys. My most vivid
memory of, Ricardo was of him sitting on his bike in front of the house hanging
onto our cyclone fence talking it up with the other neighborhood kids. He was
practically a fixture there, I can hardly rememeber a moment when he wasn't
sitting on that bike.
Unfortunately, around '72 or '73 Ricardo was struck by a car while delivering
his papers and died. That was when I learned the true meaning of what death was.
My 2nd grade class attended his funeral at St Mary's Church.
I thought I'd take a chance and see if anyone here remembers this child and if
so, do you recall his last name? Do you have any information or personal stories
on Ricky. I was only 6 when this happened and never knew his family or much of
any personal data about him. I recently became quite interested in learning more
about my friend.
Any information would be great.
Thanks a bunch

As a result of this site I was led to the Far Rockaway site. Between the two of them, I have spoken to seven long lost dear friends, met with most of them, received a Far Rockaway year book from a fellow alumni I never knew, and was found by a first cousin that I hadn't seen in forty years.

Hi Skip:
I graduated from Andrew Jackson H.S. in 1961, JHS 59 in 1958 and attended P.S.
156 until we transferred to 59. Would love to find Leona Schulman and
Iris Granoff. Sorry, I do not know Iris's married name. Have not seen either of
them since the mid-60's. Last saw Iris when I danced with her at Dale
Goldstein (224th Street & 135th Ave) and Abby Wendroff's (Can't recall address)
wedding. Last saw Leona when I got out of the Marine Corps in 1966
and visited her and her then husband Tom (I think) O'Keefe in the garden
apartments behind Green Acres mall.
Steven Rachlis used to live across the street from me in the
1950's on 130th Avenue and 231st Street in Laurelton. His parents owned the very
1950's
style candy store/soda shop on the corner of Francis Lewis Boulevard and Merrick
Road. They sold it in the late sixties, when it became the "Busy
Bee." As teenagers, we all hung out and many of us worked part time there. Lot's
of good old time doo wop on the corner in front of the place. I have not
heard of or seen "Stevie" since the candy store was sold and the family moved
away.
If you ever get any more news of him, please let me know.

There are not many names of people who graduated in 1963 - I moved to Florida

have gone to 176 - and then 147 with me.....Only names that I remember.
My brothers are Kenneth Hellman and Marc Hellman - they still have friends and

continue a relationship - left too soon.

know her last name from her first marriage which was "Lash". No one that I have
contact with from Laurelton knows what happened to her. I would appreciate
hearing from anyone who might know something about her whereabouts.
By the way, the Laurelton Reunion on October 27, 2007 in NY was fabulous.
Reconnected with lots of old classmates and friends.

Hi There,
Recently I purchased a vintage (1960's) Gretsch Champagne Sparkle drumset from a gentleman in Seattle, WA. I'd like to fill in the numerous gaps on the history of these drums. While cleaning and polishing them, I noticed a name on one of the bottom drum heads, in very faded black marker "Steve Rachlis". Through a Google search of that name, I found your Laurelton website. If you know how to contact "Steve Rachlis" would you please either pass this along to him, or pass his contact info along to me? If this IS the same Steve Rachlis as the one whose name is on one of the drum heads, I'd guess he would probably know at least one good chunk of the drum set's history. I would REALLY appreciate any assistance you can offer. Best regards,

Carl Perkal here. I'll have to find time to write
some memories of Laurelton but in the meantime, if anyone knows where to find
Rabbi Howard Singer of the LJC that would be most helpful. Rabbi Singer
certainly was a major influence in my life including why I live in Israel. I'm
sending a photo and will try to send some more. Keep up the great memories.

Hey, a few of your old friends are looking for you....

My name is Marcus Jansen. I attended PS 156 in
Laurelton with Mrs. Robinson. I was wondering if she was still around. We lived
in Laurelton 1969-1979. It was a great place to live. We belonged to the
Westindien - German community and many friends like Dona, Allan and Paul
Weisenfeld, Sonya and Hubert Ralls, Shawn, etc. were there at the time. Was
wondering if anyone remembered.

I am a June 1960 graduate of Andrew Jackson High School. I live in the Tampa Bay
area if Florida. Over the past few years I have been in contact with quite a
number of classmates throughout the country but especially in Florida. No one
seems to know what happened to Jean Schmaltz who also graduated in 1960. She
lived on 125th Avenue between Frances Lewis and 233rd Street. It would be nice
to know what has happened to her over the years. Anyone with any
information is welcome to contact me. Thanks.
