“Throwback Thursday” is a popular social media trend in which internet users, on Thursdays, log on to websites such as Instagram, Twitter, Facebook and Tumblr and post photos from the distant (and sometimes not so distant) past. The Abington Journal is joining the fun and digging through our archives for small pieces of life in the Abingtons from years past. This week’s journey takes us back 49 years to March 25, 1965 and even further back to the early 1900’s.
