1911-1912 - - - - -
1910-1911 - - - - -
1909 1910 7 months Attendant
1908-1909 Conductor
1907-1908 Conductor
1906-1907 Attendant
1900- 1906 Farmer"
What I believe from putting pieces together, i.e., reading this application, seeing photos and hearing stories from my mother is the following:
TJ apparently worked at Binghamton State Hospital as an Attendant twice ( 7months in 1909-1910 and in 1906 - 1907. In between he lists that he was a Conductor 1907-1908 and 1908-1909. I have another photo of TJ in a different uniform which I will scan and post in the blog. The pin on the shoulder and the hat have the initials BWS which I think stands for Board of Water Supply or something like that. This is where I believe TJ was a conductor of sorts. Maybe some of the younger generation can do a search on this for us???
Here is the photo I promised to scan of TJ in his BWS Uniform. My goodness does he look like the O'Rourke boys or what??
