Mary E. Dixon : High School Graduate

Battin High School, Class of 1945


Here are some treasures found this week in my mother's 1944 Battin High School Yearbook. I don't know why she had a 1944 yearbook when she graduated in 1945.

Mary Elizabeth Dixon on the list of Battin High School (Elizabeth, NJ) graduates. 1945.
If Battin organized homerooms alphabetically,
these are the girls that sat next to Mary.

Wouldn't you love to know what the
"Miscellaneous" offerings were in 1945?

That's Mary E. Dixon seated on the far right.
This was taken on graduation day. The photographer helpfully stamped the date on the back.
If you see any familiar faces here, give me a shout. Also, if you think you might have a 1945 Battin grad in your family I'd be glad to check the program for names.
