Tornado of 1985 - Photographic Memories

These eight photos represent a sample of a larger collection housed in the Local History and Genealogy Center as the Tornado Memory Project. A number of generous area residents lent us their photos, which were then scanned, saved, printed and added to the collection as a permanent record of the events and aftermath of the 1985 tornado.

This collection is currently being digitized for an online database that will be known as the Trumbull Memory Project. We are still adding your photos to our collection. Call (330) 399-8807, ext. 130 or email the Local History Center if you would care to discuss your collection with us.
