Does anyone remember when small pox vaccinations were considered routine or required by law in Delaware County? My mother was born in 1911 and had the largest vaccination mark I have ever seen. According to her, Dr. Turner used a silver dollar and traced around it and then did the vaccination inside the circle. My mother was kind of embarrassed by it and of course, we kids asked her about it and even stared at it. Gerry

I was born in 1950 and had to be vaccinated before kindergarten, 1955 Mine was more the size of a dime and since faded. Was that small pox? ctemplin4@craftech.com Love from me, ct AKA: Chris, Chrissie, Teenie, Aunt Teenie, Teen, Meema, Meem, whatever . . . -----Original Message----- From: padelawa-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:padelawa-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Gerry Tostenson Sent: Thursday, March 01, 2007 5:25 PM To: PADELAWA-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [PADELAWA] Small Pox Vacinations Does anyone remember when small pox vaccinations were considered routine or required by law in Delaware County?
