                <text>&lt;em&gt;“It's like walking next to a jet, that's how loud they are.... That thing was just whistling and screaming.” &lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Don Dodd got his start at General Mills in 1969 and worked there for decades, taking on all sorts of roles. For a time, he was a gunner - literally shooting Cheerios out of a pressurized chamber that created a deafening sound. In the early days churning out breakfast cereal and cake mixes, there were distinct roles for men and women at the plant. And, even though work there could be hot, noisy and grueling, Don and his coworkers often managed to find time for a break, sometimes dashing across the bridge for a 25 cent "adult beverage" at the nearby Swannie House. Don Dodd was interviewed by Kate Kaye in Buffalo in January 2020.</text>

                <text>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt;“Girls didn't go by the waterfront.” &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Most women and girls who lived in Buffalo's First Ward -- the waterfront community at the heart of Buffalo's once-pulsating grain industry -- never went close to the waterfront or worked among the grain elevators. But the industry was ever-present in their lives, from the grain that their husbands, fathers and brothers blew off their clothes when they came home for lunch, to the grain they sneaked from railcars, to the flour bags that mothers sewed into girls' dresses.  Bert Hyde was interviewed by Kate Kaye in Buffalo in February 2020.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</text>

                  <text>This collection of long-form reports by retired WIVB-TV Senior Correspondent Rich Newberg covers a wide range of social issues, Buffalo history and the arts. Mr. Newberg retired from the Buffalo CBS network affiliate at the end of 2015, after serving the station for thirty-seven years in various roles including main anchor, reporter and documentarian. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;His New York Emmy Award winning pieces explore the abortion debate, care of the mentally ill, the African American struggle for civil rights, and the lessons of the Holocaust, among many topics. His video memoir, “One Reporter’s Journey, “ reflects on his forty-six year career, beginning as an advocate for those without a voice. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"My hope," says Newberg, “is that this collection will provide a lasting chronicle of life and issues in Buffalo during the latter part of the 20th century and into the new millennium."</text>

                <text>“Love is Stronger than Pain” is the title of Michael O’Brien’s book memorializing the legacy of his mother, Irene Corcoran O’Brien. She lived a life of daily sacrifice, tending to the critical needs of two of her children stricken with a rare, debilitating, painful disease which causes blistering of the skin and deformities. Her faith and unconditional love of John and Maureen enabled them to experience joy in life and inspire others to do the same.&#13;
&#13;
WIVB-TV’s Rich Newberg covered the O’Brien story for years, &#13;
capturing the spirit of John, who honored the wish of his late sister and helped raise funds for a play about her life. “Hit Me Again” was in presented in Buffalo in April 1991. &#13;
&#13;
John died in 1992 at the age of 39. He was the oldest survivor of dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa. Maureen was 27 when she passed away in 1984. She died as her mother was changing here dressings. Both brother and sister appeared much older than their years. At John’s funeral it was said by his brothers that “he made friends out of strangers and family out of friends.”&#13;
&#13;
The series of reports ends with the tribute to Irene. Newberg interviews Michael who recalls Mother Theresa giving Irene her rosary. There is a scene of the brother and sister in the audience during Mother Theresa’s presentation at Niagara University. Speaking of his mother’s spirit, Michael says, “It was genuine humility…” He added, “She just thought that she was fulfilling God’s will and purpose for her life.” &#13;

                  <text>The City of Buffalo birth records collection comprises four microfilm rolls, collecting records from the former New York State Board of Health and the City of Buffalo Clerk's office. The records are birth returns or other brief documentation, primarily showing the date of birth, the names of parents with occupations, the address and the attending physician.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are four rolls in total. The rolls cover the following dates: &lt;br /&gt;Roll 1: December 12, 1850 to August 31, 1878 (few records before 1878) &lt;br /&gt;Roll 2: September 1, 1878 to July 4, 1879 &lt;br /&gt;Roll 3: July 1, 1879 to March 6, 1881 &lt;br /&gt;Roll 4: March 7, 1881 to September 16, 1881&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Each individual document from the original microfilm has been assigned a frame number. For example, the 439th document on the second microfilm roll would have the title "City of Buffalo Birth Records: September 1, 1878 to July 4, 1879 [frame 439]". &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are many gaps, and the records are not comprehensive, representing a small sample of births in the City of Buffalo for the given dates. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While the records are browsable by date, the best way to search them would be through the indexes provided below, then locating the corresponding image by the search function. Names or dates can be entered through this site's search function. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Indexes for the records can be found at the following links:&lt;br /&gt;

                  <text>The City of Buffalo birth records collection comprises four microfilm rolls, collecting records from the former New York State Board of Health and the City of Buffalo Clerk's office. The records are birth returns or other brief documentation, primarily showing the date of birth, the names of parents with occupations, the address and the attending physician.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are four rolls in total. The rolls cover the following dates: &lt;br /&gt;Roll 1: December 12, 1850 to August 31, 1878 (few records before 1878) &lt;br /&gt;Roll 2: September 1, 1878 to July 4, 1879 &lt;br /&gt;Roll 3: July 1, 1879 to March 6, 1881 &lt;br /&gt;Roll 4: March 7, 1881 to September 16, 1881&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Each individual document from the original microfilm has been assigned a frame number. For example, the 439th document on the second microfilm roll would have the title "City of Buffalo Birth Records: September 1, 1878 to July 4, 1879 [frame 439]". &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are many gaps, and the records are not comprehensive, representing a small sample of births in the City of Buffalo for the given dates. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While the records are browsable by date, the best way to search them would be through the indexes provided below, then locating the corresponding image by the search function.

                  <text>The City of Buffalo birth records collection comprises four microfilm rolls, collecting records from the former New York State Board of Health and the City of Buffalo Clerk's office. The records are birth returns or other brief documentation, primarily showing the date of birth, the names of parents with occupations, the address and the attending physician.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are four rolls in total. The rolls cover the following dates: &lt;br /&gt;Roll 1: December 12, 1850 to August 31, 1878 (few records before 1878) &lt;br /&gt;Roll 2: September 1, 1878 to July 4, 1879 &lt;br /&gt;Roll 3: July 1, 1879 to March 6, 1881 &lt;br /&gt;Roll 4: March 7, 1881 to September 16, 1881&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Each individual document from the original microfilm has been assigned a frame number. For example, the 439th document on the second microfilm roll would have the title "City of Buffalo Birth Records: September 1, 1878 to July 4, 1879 [frame 439]". &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are many gaps, and the records are not comprehensive, representing a small sample of births in the City of Buffalo for the given dates. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While the records are browsable by date, the best way to search them would be through the indexes provided below, then locating the corresponding image by the search function.

                  <text>The City of Buffalo birth records collection comprises four microfilm rolls, collecting records from the former New York State Board of Health and the City of Buffalo Clerk's office. The records are birth returns or other brief documentation, primarily showing the date of birth, the names of parents with occupations, the address and the attending physician.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are four rolls in total. The rolls cover the following dates: &lt;br /&gt;Roll 1: December 12, 1850 to August 31, 1878 (few records before 1878) &lt;br /&gt;Roll 2: September 1, 1878 to July 4, 1879 &lt;br /&gt;Roll 3: July 1, 1879 to March 6, 1881 &lt;br /&gt;Roll 4: March 7, 1881 to September 16, 1881&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Each individual document from the original microfilm has been assigned a frame number. For example, the 439th document on the second microfilm roll would have the title "City of Buffalo Birth Records: September 1, 1878 to July 4, 1879 [frame 439]". &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are many gaps, and the records are not comprehensive, representing a small sample of births in the City of Buffalo for the given dates. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While the records are browsable by date, the best way to search them would be through the indexes provided below, then locating the corresponding image by the search function.

                  <text>The City of Buffalo birth records collection comprises four microfilm rolls, collecting records from the former New York State Board of Health and the City of Buffalo Clerk's office. The records are birth returns or other brief documentation, primarily showing the date of birth, the names of parents with occupations, the address and the attending physician.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are four rolls in total. The rolls cover the following dates: &lt;br /&gt;Roll 1: December 12, 1850 to August 31, 1878 (few records before 1878) &lt;br /&gt;Roll 2: September 1, 1878 to July 4, 1879 &lt;br /&gt;Roll 3: July 1, 1879 to March 6, 1881 &lt;br /&gt;Roll 4: March 7, 1881 to September 16, 1881&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Each individual document from the original microfilm has been assigned a frame number. For example, the 439th document on the second microfilm roll would have the title "City of Buffalo Birth Records: September 1, 1878 to July 4, 1879 [frame 439]". &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are many gaps, and the records are not comprehensive, representing a small sample of births in the City of Buffalo for the given dates. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While the records are browsable by date, the best way to search them would be through the indexes provided below, then locating the corresponding image by the search function.
