Context

"The Mexican Community has existed in Lorain since approximately 1921. During these past fifty-nine years the community has had a number of organizations, institutions, and individuals who have contributed to its stability and endurance. The recognition normally given to them in other ethnic communities has been lacking in ours. Therefore, in order to start to correct this situation, it has been decided to publish this booklet." Part 1 is a brief history of the Mexican Community in Lorain. Part 2 is about the individuals (submitted by individuals and family members with varying degree of detail). Special thanks to Ms. Lisa Valentin whose work made this booklet possible.
