From my great uncles right down to my cousins today lots of my family were in the strike-breaking Coal and Iron Police (above) and then in their successor the Pennsylvania State Police.

My father’s father was a NYPD mounted police officer in the 1920’s to early 1940’s. He died when my Dad was 17 years-old.
I have a picture of him riding a black horse.
