BLUE ST AR MOTHERS OF BRIGHTON
The Blue Star Mothers of Brighton was organized at the home of Mrs. Guy Pitkin, November
10, 1942. All mothers of men and women in the service were eligible for membership. At
first it functioned as Chapter 51 of the Department of Michigan, Blue Star Mothers of America,
but at the close of the war they withdrew from the National Organization and became a local
club. Their work during the war was in making laprobes, scuffies and crutch pads for the
veter an hospitals of Michigan. They collected and shipped thousands of pounds of maga z ines to
Per cy Jones and Fort Custer Hospitals. They raised money by various activities and purchased
five wheel chairs and one walk-a-chair for the Percy Jones Hospital. They contributed generously
to the Blue Star Mothers Michigan Rehabilitation Lodge and have sent monthly contributions
to veteran hospitals for their ''cookie jar'' and ''telephone home'' funds, also sent monthly
allotments to the "Keeno" wards. Forty boxes were donated to the American Legion Auxiliary
"Give to a Yank" and aided in their Christmas "Imaginary Family" project. Our men and
women in service were remembered at Christmas time with boxes or other gifts, also on their
1.:>irthdays or at times of illness. The members of our club cheered each other during the trying
time and found comfort in working together. Mrs. Pitkin was elected president for the first
two years, she has been succeeded by Mrs. P. Leitz, Mrs. R. Luce, Mrs. H. Young, Mrs. G.
Kirchbaum and Mrs. H. Warner. The club has participated in all patriotic activities in the city
and has assisted in community work and aiding the Red Cross.

of the American Red Cross During the Period of World War II
January 1, 1941 - December 31, 1945
When the United States entered World War II on December 7, 1941, Mrs. Millie Buek was
Chairman of the Brighton Unit. She continued in this position until she resigned in February, 1943.
On February 16, 1943, (Mrs. Thomas S.), Ethel M. Leith was elected Chairman of the Brighton

Civilian Relief
Civilian Relief was given in the following cases:
We collected and gave out clothing to twenty-five families, bedding to six families, dishes
and other household furnishings to two families, who completely lost their homes by fire. Besides
the used bedding, we presented one family with a new comforter and a woolen lap robe.
We delivered many carloads of magazines to some of these homes. One family was aided
financially and clothing was bought for several children,
We collected and gave a great amount of clothing for the European Clothing Drive in 1944
and in 1945 we took charge of the Drive for this worthwhile cause in Brighton, as as a result an
even greater amount of clothing was collected than that collected in 1944.
Many letters were written answering all sorts of inquiries to questions concerning problems,
which people felt that the Red Cross could and would help them solve.

February 23, 1943 through December 31, 1944. Besides these Red Cross Dressings, our unit
made 2, 200 dressings for Mellus Hospital in Brighton, at the request of Dr . A. J . McGregor.
For two years our Surgical Dressing Unit donated funds for subscriptions sent to Colonel
Carstens , Commanding Officer of the Harper Hospital Unit in Italy for the pleasure of the
wounded soldiers. We also donated $20 ·to the Ida C. Hibbard Fund used toward purchasing an
artificial hand for some unfortunate soldier.
We opened our Surgical Dressing rooms in the Federated Church of Brighton on February
23, 1943. The following week the church burned and we were obliged to seek other quarters. We
moved into rooms over the Brighton State Bank, which were made available through the courtesy
of Mr. R. 0. Newcomb. We were permitted the use of these rooms with heat free of charge . They
were well lighted and of such size as to give us seating capacity for sixty workers. The Community
Club paid for electricity and sundries. Chairs were loaned us by Mr. Emil Keehn and the
American Legion and the tables by the Federated Church.
A summary of the work done in Sewing follows:
Ninty-seven baby nightgowns, one boy's flannel shirt, one baby quilt, eighty-seven
pairs of men's pajamas, twenty-one men's shirts, two large comforters, sixty-one
tropical lap robes (54x54), fifty-seven woolen lap robes (6x4), one hundred and one

had the highest average of pints of blood per day on "A" Unit sinc'e April 17, 1944 of any place
visited by the Unit from that date until that present date of April 5, 1945.
Many people worked to make these visits the success they were.

total expense to Livingston County Chapter was limited to $77 .87 for the six visits.
•
Under Miscellaneous Activities:
We assisted at the Dedication ceremonies of the Community Honor Roll in Brighton,
September 11, 1943.
Mrs. Clifford Harter and Miss Elizabeth Steenssen received Nurses' Aid Certificates
in Wastenaw County. Livingston County benefited as a result of this training, by having these
women serve -. at the six visits of the Blood Bank.
Mrs. Thomas S. Leith exhibited and talked on foreign dolls for the benefit of the Junior
Red Cross of the Gage School in Green Oak on December 3, 1943.
During the Fifth War Loan Drive, the Brighton Surgical Dressings Unit participated in
the parade, which opened the drive and again on August 15, 1945 we entered a float in the
Victory parade to celebrate V-J Day.
On February 29, 1944 we held a luncheon at the 1.0.0.F. Hall, which was attended by
eighty-two women. At that time, recognition was given to all women, who had worked enough
hours in Production work to earn pins and stripes. Another purpose for which the luncheon
was held was to stimulate interest in Red Cross Activities.
Numerous inquiries were made con c erning gifts for Percy Jones General and Convalescent
Hospital at Battle Creek, Michigan. Assistance was given several groups in advising them
and in directing the purchase of twenty-one wheel chairs and one artificial hand. Contributions
were encouraged to be sent to the Ida C. Hibbard Fund for the purchase of artificial limbs for
service men.
