Tremont & Pine Grove Band, 1917

A photograph taken in 1917 by Alvin C. Schwalm of Pine Grove, Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania, is of the Company G Band of Pine Grove (on bass drum). Members of this band were said to be from both Pine Grove and Tremont, but when the identifications were provided, nearly all were from Tremont.

The photo appeared in the “Down Memory Lane” feature of the Pine Grove Press Herald, February 27, 1975. Identifications, provided by John “Ducky” Kline, who remembered some of the men only by their nicknames, were in the March 5, 1975 issue:

Front Row:  “Dutch” Zirger, Lebanon; Gurney Klinger, Tremont; Rev. Charles Kopp, Tremont; Roy Tipton; Allan Rheinbold, Tremont; “Spider” Williams, Tremont; William Conrad, Outwood.
