Synopsis
Excerpt from Wheatland, Monroe County, New York: A Brief Sketch of Its History
Since his death additions to some of the chapters have been made from the author's notes and from other authentic sources, and contributions to the early history of Mumford have been given by Miss Margaret Armstrong and Mr. Oliver Allen, Jr., while additional matter relating to Beulah has been prepared by Mrs. Eugene _e. Harmon, to all of whom the thanks of the editors are due for their courteous assistance.
While the matter presented in this volume does not give in every respect a full and detailed account of Wheatland and of Wheatland's people, yet it is believed to be accurate as far as it goes and sufficiently complete to warrant publication, if for no other purpose than to gratify the author's many friends, and to serve as a solid foundation for some later historian to build upon.
