February 11, 2013 Report

Seven inquiries have come to the Town Historian’s desk in the last month—inquires that include Dr. Mary, the amusement park across from Rudy’s, burials at Rural Cemetery and info. on Mentro and Russell Streets near the college–roads no longer in existence.

One large acquisition: a chair from Dr. Mary’s Bunker Hill home from the auction in the 1920’s purchased by Harger Woodworth Sr. and given to the Hist. Society by Harger Woodworth Jr.

A Historical Society program brochure is being produced with topics for the 2013 season.

The first meeting will be Wed. March 20 6:30 pm. It will be an open house to”show off” the compiled archival material for research. Some items of Dr. Jerome Coe a prominent Syracuse physician and Oswego Town Civil War vet will also be on display
