Abstract:
These forty episodes from Yates County history illustrate the rich vitality of this New York county in the heart of the Finger Lakes. For over a decade, local historian Rich MacAlpine has done original research and written for the publication, Yates Past. Having taught the broad strokes of American History for thirty-four years, Rich explores how the local community was impacted by national and world events. Several stories cover topics that he stumbled upon through his family history research. He has produced descriptions of beloved characters, interesting events and episodes from the past that have been long forgotten.
