North Guilford Pioneers

Description

The story of the history of the hamlet of North Guilford, New York, that borders on the town of Norwich, takes you back into the 1800’s as seen through the eyes of Josephine Thompson. The original work published in 1946 has been out of print for many years. Thanks to a letter written by Ida Palen, Chenango County Historical Society received permission to reprint the book in its entirety plus add some old and rare photos of the area. Here is a piece of history that sheds light on what it was like to live and work in a remote area of Chenango County where landowners managed to survive and develop a community.
