Rockford Flood 1965

The post office in Rockford in 1965 was very near the river, on the east side of Lieder street. The red item in front of the building was the mail box, the water also totally submerged it.

    Correct spelling is Lieder. My grandparents, Christ and Rose Lieder, lived next door to the post office.
