Download or read book Helderberg Hilltowns written by John K. Elberfeld and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2012 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The early Dutch settlers in Albany called the hills to the west "Hellebergh," or "Clear Mountain." Little did they know of the rugged terrain that lay above the Helderberg Escarpment or of the hardy men and women who would one day tame that wilderness. Faced with thin soil and a harsh climate, the resourceful people of the Helderbergs established four towns: Berne, Knox, Rensselaerville, and Westerlo. The Hilltown farmers declared their independence from the feudal landlord system during the renowned anti-rent wars of the mid-1800s. As the agrarian economy faded, the enterprising Hilltowners used local resources in new ways to earn their livelihood. Landowners capitalized on the natural beauty of the region to attract tourists. Knox's cottage industry of wooden pillbox production brought it fame as the "Pillbox Capital of the World." Rensselaerville's Huyck Preserve created opportunities for the long-term study of biological systems. Helderberg Hilltowns takes the reader back to 1880 through 1950, a time of one-room schoolhouses, church socials, barn raisings, haying with draft horses, bobsledding parties, family reunions, and rocking chairs on the veranda.

Excerpt: ...renowned in the Order as its place of publication. KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS. The Order of Knights of Pythias was founded in the City of Washington, D. C., on the 19th day of February, 1864, by Justus Henry Rathbone, a na tive of Utica, in the State of New York, assisted by several gentlemen, all of whom were members of a club of musicians. Its growth was rapid, and it soon extended over the States adjacent to the District of Columbia, and was introduced in New York early in the year 1868. On the 2oth day of September, 1869, some forty citizens of the village of West Troy joined in an application for a dispensation to form Watervliet Lodge, No. 23, which was instituted on the 24th day of that month. Soon after, several citizens of the City of Albany, desirous of organizing a lodge, became members of Watervliet Lodge, afterward withdrawing therefrom and starting Peabody Lodge, No. 32, in their own city. The application was made January 3, 1870, and its initiation followed on the 2oth of the same month. Both of these lodges had representatives present at the second annual session of the Grand Lodge, which convened in Masonic Hall, in the City of New York, on the 27th of January, 1870. On May 21st of the same year, dispensation was granted to organize Mount Gilboa Lodge, No. 42, to be located in the City of Albany, and its organization followed soon after. Previous to August 1, 1870, several members of Peabody Lodge withdrew, and organized Riverside Lodge, No. 4 7, at Bath on the Hudson, which Lodge has been one of the most flourishing in the State ever since that time, and at the present writing is one of the institutions of that suburb of the City of Albany, there being no other lodge of any kind in the place. On the 2oth day of May, 1871, Egbert...

Download or read book The History of Here written by Akum Norder and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2017-12-04 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When you buy an old house, you get much more than a house. In all its quirks, its alterations, in fragments of memory and traces left behind, you get a bundle of small mysteries. Who used to live here? Why did they come here, and where did they go? Whose name is that written on the attic wall? When did that odd little bathroom get shoehorned in there, and what did the room look like before? If you're lucky, one or two of your house's mysteries might unfold into stories. Akum Norder was very lucky. The History of Here follows Albany, New York's, Pine Hills neighborhood through more than one hundred years of change. At its heart is the story of Norder's 1912 house and the people who built and lived in it. As Norder traced their histories, she came to see the development of her house, her street, and her neighborhood as a piece of Albany's story. In the lives of its residents, their struggles and triumphs, she saw a reflection of twentieth-century America. Drawing on interviews, city records, newspapers, out-of-print books, and other sources, Norder's narrative makes a case for city neighborhoods: their value, their preservation, and the grassroots involvement that turns a jumble of houses into a community. Funny and thought-provoking, readable and relevant, The History of Here celebrates the sense of place that fuels the new urbanism.
