Report of the Town Historian -1973
My activities during the year 1973 have consisted mainly of
accumulating whatever information that could be found con-
cerning the Town of Queensbury that made news in 1973, but
events that have already become history -
This has been mainly - by clipping the "Post Star & Times" and "The
"Tri County News" , and some other sources.
What remains to be done is to develop an Ideal filing system for
this information - a system that when started now will be useful
to Town Historians and others in the years to come. I intend to
work with Supervisor Austin and the Town Clerk regarding this. I
have answered correspondence and telephone communications regarding
the office thorough. this year.
As we approach the Sesqui Centennial Year 1976 I presume that the
activities of the Historian will increase and may take on a more
important sole.
