Bridgeport Woman Aids Vermont Flood Victims Missioned Red Cross Worker Miss Wenderoth in Franklin County
Bridgeport volunteer Miss Amelia Wenderoth and aide Miss Allison Hale led Red Cross flood relief in Vermont after the 1927 disaster. They reported in on fourteen towns, delivering aid, coordinating two bids for rebuilding, and guiding families through rehabilitation amid wrecked homes, losses, and insurance hurdles. The effort included assisting elderly survivors, supplying household goods, and supporting farmers with livestock and feed.
