Description
Even the smallest of villages can have fascinating stories to tell about its founding, growth, and development. For a community that saw its first settlers almost three hundred years ago, much has occurred in Ilion that offers readers an interesting and diverse historical buffet of events, places, and people.
In the first volume of Our Town, the contents were spread over 32 chapters. Presented chronologically, the topics chosen were intended to highlight important aspects of the village’s past. But by no means was the coverage exhaustive. The second volume, therefore, picks up the narrative and represents a continued look at additional aspects of the village’s history.
In reading Our Town, Volume II, there is much in this communal biography of Ilion current residents can take justifiable pride in celebrating. Correspondingly, the heightened awareness gained by their fellow New Yorkers regarding the contributions that the town made to the Empire State and the country will serve to enhance the community’s standing and esteem in their eyes.
