As native of Richmond many changes were experienced. I was to young to have worked in the shipyard but my sisters did. One sister still alive has articles she has expressed interest in donating to Rosies Museum. Would like address to give her so she may contact N.P.A. Also may have refinery articles, father worked there forty years starting around 1933 ? Pls let me know if interested?
