Record Hop 1957

Dancing at the Orleans High School Record Hop

Back when children were our highest priority, the Townspeople and Town officials recognized this and did their best to provide for their needs.

there are numbers on the people, but you can’t see them. Click on the photo to make it larger, making it possible to see the numbers, if you squint.

The photo here is not large enough to see that there are numbers assigned to most of the folks in it for ID purposes. We are working on that.

In the list below, if there is a question mark before a name, it means that we are not positive of the identification of that person.

The Record Hop was sponsored by Orleans Police and Fire Department – by the numbers, sort of left to right:

  1. Phil Deschamps, 2. Omer Chartrand (on stage), 3. Frank Ireland (far left), 4. Leighton Ellis, 4A. Pearl Ellis, 5. Al Watson, 6. Marilyn (Peters) Schofield, 7. Bruce Peters, 8. Russ Boyer (?), 9. Kitty Boyer, 10. Herb Wilcox, 10A. Judy Wilcox, 11. Phil Tarvers, 11A. Donna Sivee, 12. Donna Mayo, 13. Fred Mayo, 14. Helen Neese, 14A. Richard Neese, 15. Tommy Lee, 16. Pattie Chace, 16A.
