As you know, my great grandfather, Aaron Stern, was one of the first Jews to settle in Farmingdale. He started manufacturing pickles at the Sterns Pickle Products in 1899, perhaps even earlier, at a factory off Melville Avenue which went out of existence in 1982. Some of you undoubtedly remember that place. Actually, I have a letter that was written around 1932 by my Aunt Ethel, Aaron’s daughter and my dad’s half sister to my dad congratulating him on winning a scholarship from the NYU School of Law for the highest marks in his class. The letter was written on the stationery of A. Stern, Packer of Pickles and Sauerkraut, Farmingdale, New York.

The plant, in fact, is on land which was owned by Jarvis Lattin.

Here is still another pickle story:I am the granddaughter of the pickle works founder (The Pickle Has a Place in My Heart, May 11) who, over the years, has been omitted. He was Aaron Brauner, who brought his nephew Stern over to this country and took him into the business. The firm was known as Stern & Brauner. Several years go, before it was closed, my daughter and I took a trip to trace our roots. The then owner showed us the inside of the door covered with clippings of the history of the place and of a cousin who was a pilot. He, with my grandfather, were pioneers in the early aircraft industry. He produced an aerial photo of the building and on the roof in large letters was the name Brauner.
