The Connellsville Area Historical Society Presents: Connellsville - 1946
Take a step back in time to view the Connellsville Area and its population, organizations, and business' in 1946. This nostalgic glimpse of our area was a joint effort by 2 local residents: Dr. J. Harold Dull and Thomas P. Balsley, who filmed the project originally on 16 mm movie film. The program has now been transferred to Digital Video Disc (DVD) by the historical society. Sit back and enjoy the sites of a much busier & prosperous community; and if you are 71 years of age or older, as of this DVD release, you might even see yourself.
NOTE: This DVD differs from the 'Connellsville 1946' 40 minute version by showing the "raw" film footage not shown on the original presentation. School children from South Connellsville, Dunbar High School, Nathan Hale, Poplar Grove, Rock Ridge appear on this 77 minute version and not on the original 40 minute version.

A video showing the 50th Anniversary Luncheon & Historical Marker Dedication of ladies who manned the famous Connellsville Canteen during the World War II years of 1942 through 1944. The event was held on April 23, 1994 at the Central Fellowship Church where the Canteen site was originally located. A dedication of a Pennsylvania Historical Marker was unveiled and dedicated after the luncheon. Among the many speakers at the ceremony was Florence Shutsy Reynolds, who was awarded a Congressional Gold Medal for service in the Women Airforce Service Pilots (WASP).
Please note this video, with the exception of the first few minutes, which has been shown before in the 'Connellsville 1946' video, does NOT show the workings of the Connellsville Canteen. This video is about the anniversary luncheon & marker dedication
