Delaware Valley history

Callicoon Historian: the History of Callicoon and the Upper Delaware Valley:

On one CD-ROM, we'll be including several smaller items from the western end of Sullivan County and from Delaware County, NY. This project is still taking shape, and we're both actively acquiring material and preparing what we already have for publication. Be sure to let us know if this is of interest to you.

Here's what we've already determined will be on this CD-ROM:
--The Callicoon Historian, by J S. Graham (1892). Subtitled "A narrative of leading events in the history of the Delaware Valley, from the earliest times to the present day." This is not one you encounter every day, to say the least. There's a lot of history, and many short articles about locales, organizations, churches on both sides of the Delaware (i.e. there's some material on Wayne County, PA too!), as well as advertisements. Only 63 pages, but definitely important.	--Annual Announcement, Hancock HS, 1917-1918
	--Dedication program for the new Chapel at St. Joseph's Seraphic Seminary, in Callicoon (1927). This 44 page booklet, subtitled "History of the Franciscans at Callicoon, NY from 1895 to 1927" also includes a short historical sketch of 50 years of Catholicity in the Delaware Valley.
The applicable pages from Child's Gazetteer and Business Directory of Sullivan County for 1872-73.	--Hancock HS, 1914-1915
The pages from that standard of Sullivan County history, Quinlan's History of Sullivan County that are applicable to the towns of Callicoon, Delaware, and Fremont, including our own index.	--The Town of Fremont, by Charles S. Hick (1951)
--Douglas, the Delaware Valley City, by Arthur N. Meyers	--Home Coming Program, French Woods Methodist Church, and Milk Reunion, Goulds Methodist Church (1953)
--Program of the 12th convention of the Delaware Valley Musical Association (1901)	--Gertrude Barber's 1929 collection of the Old Youngsville Cemetery.
	--Old topographic maps of the area as well as a few old postcards
