I am working on an article on the history of milk banking in the US,  
New England in particular. If anyone has info on milk banks, milk  
collections sites, stories of milk being collected for and delivered  
to babies in need, please let me know.

I have heard rumors of a milk depot/bank in Rhode Island and  
Dorchester area in Boston, don't know when historically. I have some  
information about a milk bank in CT in the 1920's.

Any information, references and anecdotes welcome and appreciated.

Thanks,
Naomi Bar-Yam
