'Turnback Tuesday' features Manufacturers Bank of Birmingham

Turnback Tuesday looks at the 5 cent bank note of the Manufacturers Bank of Birmingham, Connecticut. The bank was chartered and organized in 1848 by men who were prominent in manufacturing in Derby.

The first board consisted of Dr. John I. Howe, Edward N. Shelton, Fitch Smith, Sidney A. Downs, Thomas Burlock, William Guthrie, Lewis Downs, Hezekiah S. Nichols, and Edward Lewis. In 1865 they adopted the name of Birmingham National Bank. Mr. Shelton was the 1st president starting in 1848 until his death in 1894. He was president for an incredible 46 years.

Thanks goes to the Derby Public Library staff for sharing interesting local history each week.

Ansonia police arrest 2 more students in Monday's social media threat

ANSONIA - As part of the continuing investigation into the social media threat Monday involving a student at Ansonia High School, two more students were arrested, Lt. Patrick Lynch said late today in a release. 

During the course of the investigation, additional threatening messages were discovered and the involved students each admitted to their involvement in the messages. 

A 16 year-old male student and a 14 year-old female student were arrested; each was charged with Threatening First Degree and Breach of Peace Second Degree and they were referred to juvenile authorities.

 

The Ansonia Police Department strongly urges all parents to speak with their children about the importance of understanding what they say and the effect it can have on not only themselves but also all the people around them. We encourage parents to closely monitor what their children are doing online.

This is a press release from Ansonia Police Lt. Patrick Lynch.
