He lived through it in Perth Amboy, N.J. Times were so different then. Perth Amboy was so close to Manhattan, yet my grandpa's family knew nothing of the severity of the storm until the newspapers came out. Grandpa said they all bundled up, and sat around around the big coal stove, and sang songs whilst listening to the howling wind.jersey guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16494734774327989003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5206380617235471991.post-8611646163705640412014-01-02T19:09:51.111-05:002014-01-02T19:09:51.111-05:00I HAVE BEEN THROUGH MANY SNOWSTORMS DURING MY LIFE...I HAVE BEEN THROUGH MANY SNOWSTORMS DURING MY LIFE BUT THE BLIZZARD OF 1888 IS THE MOST MEMORABLE!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5206380617235471991.post-76390336994570579612013-02-16T17:08:43.674-05:002013-02-16T17:08:43.674-05:00I love the photos of the 1888 blizzard.

Having lived thru 2 main blizzards, we had the convenience of snow blowers along with shovels. NOT IN 1888!!!!
