The Holland Land Office Museum is located in Batavia, NY. It is housed in the 1815 structure built by the Holland Land Company for the purpose of selling all the land west of the Genesee River, known as the Holland Purchase. The purchase comprised of over three million acres. The building has functioned as a museum since 1894 and shares the history of Genesee County from its beginning in 1800 to present day. The museum exhibits include: Holland Land Company, Native American culture, Pioneer Life, Military History, etc.

HLOM Clips- Bart Dentino Concert, “Puff the Magic Dragon”
Great Christmas music. Hope you had a Merry Christmas!!
Great Christmas music!! I especially love “Silent Night.”
My family and I lived in the old post office for 18 years. We saw some weird stuff!! Three of us did.
My ancestors are Joseph and Andrew Ellicott. We have been collecting the books about them and the families here in Rochester for the last few years that we have been researching our history
Well stated! Keep it alive!
Wow Bart you are pretty good!!
My great great great uncle Sergeant Thomas McCracken of the 16th North Carolina Infantry Penders Brigade Hills Light Division CSA fought at Cedar Mountain
Great presentation!!
Great song!!
great presentation
Great work Tyler 👏 ❤
🦬
Thank you for a wonderful concert.
Completely my pleasure! What a warm and wonderful group to play for. Many thanks!
My children grew up on Bart's music. My son bought all the CD's for his children. Bart was such a blessing to Alexander. Train train was my favorite!
Great music!!
Thank you!
for sure this is an impeccable channel, I have never watched a video that was not wonderful. So thank you and I wish you blessed.
I have the black beauty shotgun
Had Dr. Ftizpatrick as a professor 20 years ago. Absolutely great to see him again. His knowledge of US military history was as stunning back then as it is today.
Just read Thomas Gahr's book, "Box-Shaped Heart". What happened to his daughters? What happened to Palmer's business?
Big grave stone in Forest Lawn Cemetery in Buffalo.
The Carnage was Fearful
Very nice
Very nice bag.
I have a Wiard plow that was my grandfather's and I am 79. Mostly wood but is turned to look like a trencher? Still has the Wiard name in black on it. I need to know where I can send a photo for it ti be identified and aged please.
That woman should leave her phone at home.
I just acquired a Wiard walking plow. Thanks for this history.
My father used to own that house
Very very nice. Well done
Such a good presentation by a wonderful speaker, and Author!!!
My 1st Cousin 5x removed attended Ella Estelle Dorman, daughter of John, and Caroline Main Dorman.
how informative! I did not realize the Erie canal went all the way to new york city. im not sure where I thought it went, but not to NYC. How cool! I have rode on a steamboat a few times before and the operators/mechanics love talking about how the steamboat runs. I don't know much but I do know that there is 'perfect storm' so to speak on how to run a steamboat at optimization. you need to have the boiler at just the right temperature, and you operate off of a certain pressure of steam in the boiler to get the steamboat running smoothly. to little steam/to cool a boiler, and you run the risk of getting stuck in the middle of the lake. To much steam/to hot, and you run the risk of blowing up the boat. from what I asked, the operators said they didn't have the technology back then to know all this/operate like that. they just fired up the boilers the hottest they could get them and ran the piss out of the boat. thats why they all blew up.
What about Stafford's lodge above the old store?
When I first joined the Stafford Fire Department, there was still a lot of confusion as far as the numbering. We were dispatched to a chimney fire back in there. No smoke or fire was visible from the road A homeowner was on the back side of the house throwing glasses of water on the house. Yes, he had a drinking glass and was throwing water on the house. After the Chief at the time had figured out that it was back in there rather than the road he had driven back to it. The homeowner berated him for driving past his house etc. The chief looked him dead in the eye and explained that 1. the numbering made it difficult as well as it being nighttime. 2. He was driving his personal vehicle as a marked vehicle wasn't in the plans yet and 3, the chimney and yourself were behind the house, which makes it hard to see.
👏👏👏
I have a signed copy of the book, and have bought 4 more copies for friends. I also have the audiobook through Audible. I’m an Alexander native, and Dee has done us proud. The story is heartbreaking, and I’m proud to call her my friend.
Learned a lot! Dennis embodies Mr Ellicott and brings him alive, teaching us about Western NY history along the way. Great job, fellow Wilson High School Alumnus.
thank you Ryan you do great videos
Wonderful, Thank You.
Nice
My parents told me that the Devil had been chained to the rock and went around and around in circles trying to get free, until he spiraled down into the ground all the way to Hell. Being a little kid, this scared me so bad that for a long time whenever we drove by Devil's Rock I would crouch down on the floor in the backseat to hide! (This was before the days of seatbelts, obviously.) 😄 I wonder if there were other gullible kids who fell for that story?
Neat videos!
Mighty fine performance my friend!
Thanks, Bill
Many great memories to recall of Roger (I am the wife of fellow dentist friend of Roger in the Navy, accounting for fraternity life in college before careers in the Navy)...
Nowadays DNA from Ruth's hair could possibly be linked to living relatives who might remember famy stories of a family member who went missing.
This video is so cool!
Do you have any objects or photos linking Batavia to Mudfoods, Grand Tartaria, and erased history after the great reset of the late 1800's?
Keep up the great work!
Excellent program!
I live in Batavia and I own a later model Batavia Special. It's a wonderful piece of home town history and I am proud to own it. Thank you for posting this information !
Great work, keep it up!
