Included are an Irish surgeon who fought in the French and Indian War; a chief proprietor of the Macomb Purchase; the builder of Constable Hall; four brothers who ranged the Adirondacks between the 1830's and 1880's from the Fulton Chain to the Saranacs, prior to noted surveyors Benedict, Emmons or Colvin; and the first women campers in the central Adirondacks, predecessors to Lady Amelia Murray.

About the Author

Edith Pilcher (1928-2018) was a founding member of the Adirondack Research Center (later the Adirondack Research Library or ARL) at Union College who became chair of collection development. The ARL would not be what it is today without her careful and diligent curating and development of the collection throughout her career. In addition to these duties, Pilcher was also a gifted author and historian who published numerous books on lesser known aspects of Adirondack history.
