A long, tumultuous history connects area to Cuba – Rochester, New York
Tagged: Cuba, RochesterPosted on: July 30th, 2007“Rochester and Cuba share historical connections that date at least as far back as the Spanish-American War.
Four Rochesterians were aboard the Maine, a U.S. battleship whose sinking in February 1898 in Havanas harbor was one of the factors that led to the war. Three of the Rochester men were killed; one survived.”
