This photograph shows the American Legion Hall when it was located on Indian Rock Road where the “The Commons” center is located today. “The Wilbur E. Tarbell Post #109 was organized after the Second World War, and its charter meeting held on March 15, 1951. On May 7, 1956, the post was officially incorporated and the name chosen in memory of Wilbur E. Tarbell. Mr. Tarbell, son of Mr. and Mrs. Maurice Tarbell, was the Town of Windham’s only casualty of WWII.” Mr. Tarbell served on board the USS Scorpion, a submarine that was sunk in the Pacific.  https://vintageaerial.com/photos/new-hampshire/rockingham/1966/PRO/76/18
