Although this is short notice, Brian, my friend, who is also helping to restore the Krumkill Road Cemetery is organizing a clean-up this weekend, Saturday, 14 July, 2018. An edited snippet from his FB page about this event is below.
Saturday July 14th, Christopher White, my partner in reclaiming and restoring the Evangelical Protestant Cemetery on Krumkill Road and I are hosting a work party. We’ll be working from about 8:00 A.M. until 12:00 noon. Afterward we’ll provide pizza, wings, soda and other liquid refreshments. There are a couple of areas that we need to concentrate on, and a small army like was organized last summer can make short work of an area that will overwhelm just one or two of us. If you hit like, more people will find out about this work event, and more work can be accomplished. Remember that many hands make light work! If you’d like to attend, comment below and we’ll follow up with you.
A blog aimed at discussing aspects of local Albany area history. Areas of focus to include research, documentation, ethnicity, genealogy, cemeteries, cultural events, and historic landmarks.

Historic Photos on Exhibit at Stephentown Post Office
The following article comes from this week's Rensselaer County Advertiser newspaper.
Historic Photos on Exhibit at Stephentown Post Office
Photographs of Stephentown from 1907 and 1908 are now on display at the Stephentown Post Office. These scenes have been printed from glass plate negatives that were donated to the Stephentown Historical Society by the Lebanon Valley Historicial Society. The views include the Kinderhook Creek and Atwater Village section of Garfield.
These historic images will also be part of a Spring 2019 exhibit of local photography at the Stephentown Heritage Center. Photographers should plan to take their own interesting views and visions of Stephentown throughout the coming year with this exhibit in mind. Complete information will be available early next year.
