11th of 16 Father Charles Repole-related images from former DOC Chaplain Timothy F. MacDonald's Photo Collection |
|
The picture is the 11th of 16 Fr. Charles Repole-related images made available to the New York Correction History Society web site by Friar Tim F. MacDonald who served as a NYC DOC chaplain during the 1970s as did Fr. Repole.
Friars Repole and MacDonald examine with unidentified member of the Hart Island unit the monument honoring the Civil War veterans who were once interred in Potter's Field because no one had claimed their remains for burial. The monument remained even after the bodies were eventually transferred to West Farms Cemetery and Cypress Hills National Cemetery.
Veteran current and former NYC DOC staffers and others who can correct, refine, enhance and increase the information in the image caption above are invited to do so. Include the image sequence number in your e-mail to the webmaster@correctionhistory.org | |
