This is a starter page. More to come later. These photos come from Valerie Bedard. Jeddo Highland Coal Company office staff, ca. 1925-1930s Valerie wrote: Hello, I have two photos of the Jeddo Highland Coal Company office force. One is from 1930s or early 1940. The other is 1925 to early 1930. They have been passed down in our family. Jeddo-Highland Coal Company office staff, ca. 1925-1930s Valerie wrote: This was left by my aunt. Her husband, Ted Schuchart, worked for Jeddo Highland Coal Company for 50 years. He is in the 4th row back and the 4th person from the right (or the 22nd person from left). He has dark hair and a dark coat and standing between two shutters. My aunt wrote on the back that this was taken sometime from 1925 to early 1930s. These are people in the office force. The photo is 7” x 17” so I scanned two pieces. They will overlap. Susan Miller-Yoder wrote: Second picture of the Jeddo office staff, gentleman on the end in the third row with wavy hair, vest and tie is my grandfather George Fatula. Dawn Piazzi wrote: Thanks so much! My dad is in these pictures! I had no idea the office force of Jeddo Highland was so big. He is seated to the right of the 4 women in white. 2nd row from front, with a mustache. Dorothy Welshko wrote: Thank you.
