Download or read book Murders Funky Stuff in Schoharie County written by Karen Cuccinello and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2012-11 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Murder & mayhem in little rural upstate New York; Yes it's true! From 1726 until 1974 about 35 murders hit the news in Schoharie County, NY. The book is loaded with pictures of actual newspaper articles. Some of the murders were sensational, some were swept under the rug and some are unsolved. I was a bit surprised at how many husbands killed their wives. The hills and valleys of the County also offered some rather interesting funky stuff too. When you look at the headlines in the newspaper, what is your eye drawn to first? Let's say there is a story about someone winning a million dollars, another about 200 new jobs and a murder. Most of us, I believe, look at the murder first. Why, I do not know but we do. Some of the convicted went to the gallows, some to the electric chair and a couple were even burned at the stake. I found a paper, compiled by a class at Hartwick College, NY, that listed 140 hangings in all of New York State from 1673-1890. The weird and unusual occurrences that took place in or near Schoharie County are sprinkled throughout the murders. Some of my favorites are the guy who tried to sell his wife for $25, the man who slept for five years, the booby trapped house and the supposed German spy. This book also chronicles the people and places that the bad guys were in contact with. There are pictures of the attorneys, jail and court houses that they frequented. It seems that, in the past, the Schoharie County jail did not have a very good reputation for keeping prisoners within their walls. I hope you enjoy what I have found in the news about the bad and or strange side of Schoharie County.

Download or read book The Schoharie Valley written by John P. D. Wilkinson and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2012 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Settled by Palatine Germans in the early 1700s, the Schoharie Valley is known as the "Breadbasket of the Revolution" due to rich soils that produced grain for Washington's forces. Today, the area's many farming families --including the Wyckoffs, Shauls, and Barbers --continue the farming tradition. The Schoharie Creek defines the valley and the many hamlets and villages along its banks, including Gilboa, North Blenheim, Breakabeen, Fultonham, Middleburgh, Schoharie, Gallupville, Central Bridge, Sloansville, and Esperance. The creek has greatly impacted the Schoharie Valley's landscapes and lifestyles, from the construction of the Gilboa Dam and the destruction of Gilboa village in the 1920s, to baptisms in the creek near Sloansville. Through vintage images, The Schoharie Valley celebrates these quaint communities that have thrived and survived for generations and continue to draw residents and visitors alike.

Book excerpt: 250+ One-Room Schoolhouses dotted the Schoharie County country side from the early 1800's until 1968. This book, a revision of my 2011 addition, chronicles the formation of education in NY state, all of the schoolhouses, many of the teachers, tid-bits of information and oodles of photos. My compilation zero's in on the traditional clapboard one-room schoolhouse and the occasional brick or stone school. I listed schools, to the best of my ability, alphabetically with their town and district #, location, date they opened and closed and their final disposition. The teachers are listed with the school/schools they taught in and the year they taught, if known. Schoharie County School Commissioner Districts in 1812: First District-Broome, Blenheim, Conesville, Esperance, Gilboa, Middleburgh, Schoharie and Wright. Second District-Carlisle, Cobleskill, Fulton, Jefferson, Richmondville, Seward, Sharon and Summit.
