I wished they could extend the trail into HF from Great Bend park.
thank you, thank you, thank you. that was so beautiful.
In the 1960’s John Spencer and I were exploring the attic of College Hall and discovered the contents of an old exhibition (?). It included one of John Brown’s spears. We turned it over to his parents. John may know what eventually became of it.
The pillars on Spencer House were added in the 90’s by Paul Johannsen when he lived there
Still has steam heat. Coal fired until 1965 or 6 when it was converted to gas fired
Notice the water tower in the early 20th century. Once that was removed and the building relied on pressure from the town reservoir west of town, there was inadequate water pressure on the 4th floor until the new water tower was built
The barns were removed in 1965 or 1966. I watched them being torn down. The farm stopped production some years before that
I’m pretty sure the Thomas home was on Genesee St, one street over at roughly that same location
I now live in the house once owned by Professor Adam C. Works!
Excellent presentation! I shared this with others who would find this most interesting!
Hi, I am interested in the history of the the lower mill that in honeoye falls
I would suggest contacting the Village Historian, Lynne Menz or Bill Lane at the Society's Museum.
Love this!
Thank you John for a wonderful and informative program.
Great job Chris! Very interesting and I can watch it down here in Florida!
The fabric pattern of that purple dress is gorgeous and wish it was available in fabric today.
