Along with the old maps of NY, I also use the old newspapers to research where and when things happened.
The following is the address for ON LINE old newspapers for Up state NY.
I have used them to research encampments and other gatherings
These old papers have lead me to some interesting stuff. now if it just stops snowing I can get out and look around.

Yes... true.

Have you seen my posts and finds?

I still miss the fall colors... nothing beats that, 'I guess 'cept a view of teh ROcky Mountains.

As for living in the 1800s. No way... all the stuff lost then that I dig today - ain't worth crap back then! LMAO
