[She pronounces it as “coal-win.”] Wilder: Colwyn, it’s pronounced. [Wilder says “coll-win,” as in collar.] Burstein: Colwyn. Wilder: Yeah, Colwyn. Burstein: . Colywn, Pennsylvania, and about your family. Where were your folks from? Wilder: My – I think – I know my father’s family are from North Carolina. I think my mother’s family were also from North Carolina. Apparently they had come North much earlier than my father’s family, because my mother was born in Pennsylvania. My father was born in North Carolina. He left – my grandfather brought his family to Philadelphia – to Colwyn, as a matter of fact. That’s something I don’t really understand. I don’t know how they managed to end up in Colwyn, but that’s where they did. My father was 12 years old at that time. He’s now – he’ll be 92 in November – the 23rd of November. Burstein: So this was in 1912 that they came there. Wilder: Yeah, in 1912 he came – they came to Colwyn. There were – in Colwyn, I think there was my paternal grandparents and my maternal grandparents, and my aunts and uncles, and my family.

  • Series 139 Playland Phonograph
    Westchester County Archives Series 139 2199 Saw Mill River Road Elmsford, New York 10523 Playland Phonograph Collection (914) 231-1500 1911‐1970 (bulk late 1920s‐1950s) Playland Phonograph Collection, 1911-1970, bulk late 1920s-1950s Series 139 Approximately 650 phonographs. Unarranged. Phonographs – both 10 and 12 inch – played from the Playland Music Tower and possibly the Playland Ice Casino. The collection includes classical music as well as popular tunes, including some Hawaiian-themed music. The collection is divided into five parts – a set of numbered records; numbered and unnumbered album collections; loose phonographs, and phonographs that were housed in their original album jackets. The album jackets have Braille identification tags because the disc jockey who worked at the Playland Music Tower was blind. There are two different indexes on note cards for the phonograph albums, but neither one appears to be complete or clear as to its exact use. Therefore, a new index has been completed by Archives’ volunteers. Please note: The Archives does not have playback equipment necessary to listen to the phonographs that make up this collection. The five subseries of this collection can be more fully described as follows: 1. A set of numbered records. These phonographs have individual number labels on them and run up through number 998. Each individual phonograph has 2 numbers on it – one for each side. However, the collection is not complete and there are only about 350 individual phonographs in this group. They were originally housed in 39 cardboard cases that held several individual phonographs. Due to the poor condition of these cases they were disposed during processing, although the case number was recorded.
