| The
above map shows the location of my childhood home in the Laurel Hill
Community in Sterling Forest New York. When we moved there the roads Fawn Hill and Spice Bush Lane were the only roads. Deer
Path and the other roads were being put in. The house we lived in
was the first built on Deer Path Road and our family was the first to
live in it. My younger brother and I delivered papers to all the houses in this residential community. I started the route when it was only Fawn Hill and Spice Bush Lane had houses. By the time my brother started helping me the route had expanded to include all the new houses on the other recently put in roads. |
The above map shows
the location of my childhood home in Monroe New York. In fact you
can see the house and the pond which were on the five acres my parents
owned. The house is a bit bigger as another addition was added to
it after my parents sold it. It is now a
Bed and Breakfast. The residential roads and the Golf Course/Club at Manson Ridge on the opposite side of Orange Turnpike were not there when I was growing up. Those areas were operating dairy farms prior to the 1980s. |

The map to the left
show the 57-38N 140-125W position of the burning MV Prinsendam on 4
October 1980. This position is 125 miles southwest of Yakutat
Alaska and 175 miles west of Sitka. Alaska. Yakutat Alaska is an isolated coastal fishing community having a permanent living population of less than 2000 individuals. There is no other community closer to the burning Prinsendam. Sitka Alaska is a more robust and diversified community pertinent to technology, equipment, and communication resources and capability. The only other community of any substance of resources to be of any help to the crew and passengers of the burning Prinsendam closer than Kodiak, Anchorage, and Juneau is Cordova Alaska. |
