Happy Fourth of July
In celebration of Independence Day, the Jewish Historical Society of Delaware is pleased to share these recordings of patriotic songs with you. The singer is Sarah Szczepanski Citron (1900–1993), who immigrated to the US from Poland in 1921. She married Abe Citron and raised two children in Atlanta, and when Abe died in 1966, moved to Wilmington, Delaware, to live with her daughter and son-in-law, Helen C. and Mendel Gordon. These songs were recorded by Naomi Goldstein in the 1980s.
Visit our digital collections for more recordings of Sarah Citron.
Thanks to Paula Gordon and Helen Gordon for sharing these delightful recordings and photos with the Jewish Historical Society of Delaware.
