Edward Lider was my grandfather. This was fun to find. I used to go to their movie theaters.

Is there anyone who can help me find info on Nathan Yamins and Theatrical Enterprises/Fall River Theaters Corp. of Boston, etc???

Thank you

On another Note Edward flew a fighter plane in WW2 and Pearl Harbor. Today was the 70th Anniversary

I was able to locate two drive-ins in the Manchester area. Neither have Manchester mailing addresses, but they were both located just outside town. Sadly, both have been replaced by Walmart.
