SUMMARY:History Talk: The D & H Amusement Parks by Stephen Skye
DESCRIPTION:History Talk by Stephen Skye\, Museum Historian. \nDuring the 19th century\, the D&H Canal Company built amusement parks on its lands. Amusement on the canal went from simple canal boat rides to a much more elaborate facility on its gravity railroad during the late 19th century at Farview\, PA. When the canal company expanded into trolley networks in the early 20th century\, amusement parks were established at the end of their trolley lines. Come to hear about the establishment of America’s amusement park industry during the turn of the turn of the century. \nThis event will be held September 12th\, at 7:00 PM at the D & H Canal Park Visitor’s Center\, 58 Hoag Road\, (just off Route 209) Cuddebackville\, NY. \nThe Neversink Valley Museum is open Sundays from noon until 4:00 PM through October 29 and by appointment. For more information about the museum\, its mission to preserve local history or any events\, call 845-754-8870 or check the website: www.neversinkmuseum.org. Or email at nvam@neversinkmuseum.org \nThe museum is at 26 Hoag Road\, in Cuddebackville. \nLight refreshments will be served. \nPlease go to our website for Information (click) \nTime:\n7:00 PM\nCost: $5 for Museum Members – $7 for Non-Members\nOrganizer: The Neversink Valley Museum of History & Innovation\nPhone: (845) 754-8870\nEmail: nvam@neversinkmuseumorg\nWebsite: https://neversinkmuseum.org\nVenue: D&H Canal Park Visitor’s Center\n58 Hoag Road\nCuddebackville\, NY. 12729 \n  \n

SUMMARY:The Neversink Valley Museum Wednesday Night History Talks with Bill Merchant " The History of the DuPuy Canal House"
DESCRIPTION:History Talk on the DuPuy Canal House History of the Canal House  1797 – Simeon DePuy\, one of the most prominent citizens of High Falls\, NY opened the Stone House Tavern.\n1825 – Work on the Delaware-Hudson Canal began\, a project destined to link towns from Rondout-on-the-Hudson to Honesdale\, PA. Simeon DePuy\, by then an experienced restaurateur\, profitted well during this time catering to hungry and thirsty Canal workers.\n1826 – The D & H Canal opened ushering in a new era of cargo transport that operated for over 70 years. Simeon DePuy’s eatery was the site of Lock 16. His business flourished as the canalmen\, called the “roughest\, toughest\, fightingest” bunch of the profession\, refueled at the tavern-on-the-water.\n1870 – The D & H Canal entered a prosperous decade\, which would be its last successful era.\n1872 – 1\,000\,000 tons of anthracite coal were weighed through the locks at Eddyville. It was coal that gave the Canal its start. Ironically\, it was coal that would force its closing. Since the Canal could not operate during the winter\, America welcomed in the Great Railroad. Trains were able to move the coal quicker\, cheaper\, and in all seasons of the year. High Falls\, a thriving community with five stores\, five saloons\, and two butcher shops\, began to lose its luster.\n1899 – The D & H Canal Company sold the Canal with all of its “franchises\, rights and privileges” to Samuel D. Coykendall for $10\,000. But within a few years\, the Canal closed for good\, with the “Ulster Queen” the last boat to make a scheduled run. The Canal\, once the Interstate Highway of the 19th Century\, became merely an unused\, overgrown ditch.

SUMMARY:The Neversink Valley Museum Wednesday Night History Talks on THE BATTLE OF MINISINK REVISITED with DR. RICHARD HULL @ 7PM
DESCRIPTION:  \n \nThe Battle of Minisink Revisited:\nConflicting Perceptions and Fresh Interpretations of its Cause\, the Conflict\, and Its Catastrophic Consequences\nby Dr. Richard Hull\, Professor Emeritus\, New York University \nThe talk will critically examine the tragic 1779 Battle of Minisink taking the conflicting perspectives of  its combatants: a local American revolutionary militia\, a unit of Empire Loyalists\, and a  band of Native American fighters. Professor Hull will weigh the accounts of its participants focusing of its key actors:  Mohawk Colonel Joseph Brant and Warwick revolutionary Colonel John Hathorn. He will then set their views in a broad context of historically-recurring issues of rebellion\,  land possession\,  race and ethnicity \,and cultural diversity\, Over the generations there  has been much myth\, legend and raw emotion surrounding this pivotal Revolutionary War conflict. Dr. Hull will argue for a more balanced interpretation. The talk promises to be thought provoking\, eye-opening\,  and innovative in its approach. \nARTICLE FROM TIMES HERALD RECORD \n\nOn July 20\, 1779\, Joseph Brant\, Mohawk chief and British Army colonel\, led a raiding party of Indians and Tories against the settlement at Minisink\, near present-day Port Jervis.\nBrant\, an astute military tactician\, had learned that a Colonial Army detachment under Count Pulaski\, which had been assigned to defend the sparse settlements in the Mamakating\, Neversink and Delaware valleys\, had been re-deployed elsewhere\, leaving the area largely unprotected. Brant’s objective was to gather livestock\, produce and whatever other provisions he could find and stockpile them in order to help the British and their Indian allies camped out in the Susquehanna Valley survive the following winter. If he could devastate and demoralize the settlers and distract the Colonials from their fight with the regular British Army\, all the better.\nHaving completed the raid\, plundering and burning homes\, killing the men and dispersing the women and children\, Brant and his men took their bounty and returned northward\, along the Delaware\, on their way back to the Susquehanna.\nWord of the raiding party soon reached Goshen\, where the call went out for the militia to gather under the leadership of a local physician\, Col. Benjamin Tusten.\nAfter hotly deliberating the merits of engaging the marauders in combat\, Tusten and 149 men – merchants\, farmers and clerks\, and what James Eldridge Quinlan later described as “some of the principal gentlemen of the county” – set out the next day in pursuit of their quarry.\n“Colonel Tusten was opposed to risking an encounter with the subtle Mohawk chief with so feeble a command\,” Quinlan wrote\, “especially as the enemy was known to be greatly superior to them in numbers. The Americans were not well provided with arms and ammunition\, and it was wise to wait for reinforcements. “Others\, however\, were for immediate pursuit. They held the Indians in contempt\, insisted that they would not fight\, and declared that a recapture of the plunder was an easy achievement.\n“The excited militia men took up their line of march\, and followed the old Kathegton (Cochecton) trail 17 miles\, when they encamped at Skinner’s mill\, near Haggie’s Pond\, about three miles from the mouth of Halfway Brook.” The following morning\, July 22\, 1779\, Tusten and his men\, bolstered by a contingent from Warwick under the command of Col. John Hathorn\, finally confronted Brant on the banks of the Delaware just above present-day Barryville.\nAlmost immediately\, Brant deftly cut the militia’s force in two and an epic battle ensued on a hilltop overlooking the river.\nAmmunition was soon depleted\, and the combat was reduced to hand-to-hand\, with the Mohawks and Tories getting much the better of it. The militia was routed\, and nearly all of those who stayed and fought were killed\, including Tusten.\nFollowing the bloody daylong battle\, Brant and his remaining men forded the river and continued on their journey. They somehow managed to avoid the severe retribution for their actions administered a few weeks later by Gen. John Sullivan and his army of 3\,000\, who swept through Wawarsing\, Mamakating and Deerpark\, through Easton and Tioga Point\, and destroyed anything Iroquois they encountered along the way. \n\nThe remains of those slain on that desolate Barryville hilltop in what forever after would be known as the Battle of Minisink were not afforded a proper burial. Quinlan wrote that “for 43 years the bones of those who had been slain on the banks of the Delaware were permitted to molder on the battle ground. But one attempt had been made to gather them\, and that was by the widows of the slaughtered men\, of whom there were 33 in the Presbyterian congregation of Goshen. They set out for the place of battle on horseback\, but finding the journey too hazardous\, they hired a man to perform the pious duty\, who proved unfaithful and never returned.”\nFinally\, in 1822\, “a committee was appointed to collect the remains and to ascertain the names of the fallen. The committee proceeded to the battle ground\, a distance of 46 miles from Goshen\, and viewed some of the frightful elevations and descents over which the militia had passed when pursuing the red marauders. The place where the conflict occurred\, and the region for several miles around\, were carefully examined and the relics of the honored dead gathered with pious care. The remains were taken to Goshen\, where they were buried in the presence of 15\,000 persons.”\nA monument was erected to mark the mass grave\, upon which was inscribed the names of the 44 men killed in the battle.\nUnfortunately\, as meticulous as the search for remains had been\, only 300 bones were recovered\, far fewer than had been expected. Nature and the denizens of the forest had no doubt disposed of the rest.\nThis sad occurrence moved the Monticello poet Alfred B. Street to write in the final stanza of his 10-stanza commemorative of the battle:\n“Years have pass’d by\, the merry bee\nHums round the laurel flowers\,\nThe mock-bird pours its melody\nAmid the forest bowers;\nA skull is at my feet\, though now\nThe wild rose wreathes its bony brow\,\nRelic of other hours\,\nIt bids the wandering pilgrim think\nOf those who died at Minisink.” \nJohn Conway is the Sullivan County historian and an adjunct professor of history at Sullivan County Community College in Loch Sheldrake. He lives in Barryville. \n\n

SUMMARY:The Neversink Valley Museum Wednesday Night History Talks "The History of Yankee Lake 1844-1960"  @ 7PM
DESCRIPTION:The Neversink Valley Museum of History and Innovation is proud to present a History Talk on the new 2016 book “The History of Yankee Lake New York From 1844-1960” featuring the local historian and author Denége Patterson at The D&H Canal Park Visitor’s Center\, 58 Hoag Road\, Cuddebackville\, NY at 7pm. \n \nHidden in the hills just north west of the D&H Canal at Westbrookville\, NY when you follow the Pinekill Stream\, rests a community of lakes that were an integral part of the life of the D&H Canal and Sullivan County. When the D & H Canal Company began construction of their canal through the valley\, they found sandy\, gravelly soil through several miles of its length. As a result\, much more water would be needed in order to maintain the water level required for the canal boats during the summer. Parties of surveyors were sent to the mountains to the west of the canal to determine if sufficient quantities of water could be made available. Areas were located where they could build five reservoirs within a few miles radius of one another\, all of which were on top of the mountains. These bodies of water known today as Yankee Lake\, Wolf Lake\, Lake Louise-Marie\, Masten Pond and Wanaksink Pond. Yankee Lake and 1500 acres of surrounding land was purchased by the D & H Canal Company. From whom did they purchase the land? Did the Minisink and Hardenburg Patentees sell this property? Did they have the legal right to do so? \nThese and many more questions will be entertained by the Yankee Lake Historian Denége Patterson in her presentation  based on the new 2016 book “The History of Yankee Lake New York From 1844-1960” authored by Ms. Patterson along with Cathy Dawkins and Brad  Dawkins\, all members of the Yankee Lake Preservation Association. The presentation will show many historic photographs and maps that are included in the book\, which will be available for purchase the night of the History Talk. \n \nDenaege Patterson: Speaker \nCo Authors:  \nCathy Dawkins  \nBrad Dawkins   \n  \n  \n  \nNeversink Valley Museum/D&H Canal Visitor’s Center\n58 Hoag Road\nCuddebackville\, NY \n  \nPlease go to our website for Information

SUMMARY:The Neversink Valley Museum Wednesday Night History Talks with STEPHEN SKYE @7pm
DESCRIPTION:The Neversink Valley Museum of History and Innovation presents a History Talk by Stephen Skye\, Neversink Valley Museum Historian and Board President on “The Cornell Family: Master D&H Capitalists”\, focusing on the history of Thomas Cornell and his son in law Samuel Decker Coykendall\, two figures that loom large in the making of Rondout NY and their connection to the D&H Canal! The Cornell company is mainly known today for the work it did ferrying D&H coal down the Hudson. Members of the family also owned the Rosendale cement plants\, were on the D&H Canal Board of Directors\, were also senior D&H executives\, built a railroad through the Catskills with money made in transporting D&H coal\, owned a grand hotel (also built with D&H coal money)\, and even owned a creamery. Three generations of the Cornell family controlled commerce in the Hudson River Valley and provide us with an example of how business was conducted in 19th century America and how family life was entangled with commercial life during that era.\nPhoto: Cornell Steamship Co.

SUMMARY:Wednesday Night History Talk with FRANK SALVATI
DESCRIPTION:The Neversink Valley Museum of History and Innovation presents: \nA History Talk with Frank Salvati \nJuly 6th @ 7PM\n“Pontiac and His War” \nFrontier warfare at its most savage!\nIn the spring of 1763\, the Lenape (Delaware)\, Huron\, Miami\, Ottawa\, and Shawnee tribes all used force to resist the British Colonists. Mislabeled ‘The Conspiracy of Pontiac’ by historian Francis Parkman\, it was in reality a war brought on by the British who had very little respect for the Native Americans and who continued to violate treaty after treaty; breaking promise after promise made to the tribes. \nMany chiefs played their parts in the ensuing conflict\, but the greatest among them was the Ottawa chief Obwandiyag\, whom the English called “Pontiac”. He was an imposing figure\, tall strong and heavily tattooed\, in the custom of the Ottawa. He fashioned his straight black hair in a narrow pompadour and wore silver bracelets on his arms and a collar of white plumes around his neck. He was courageous and commanded respect far beyond his own people. \nPontiac was inspired by the words of Neolin\, the Lenape Nation prophet\, who warned his people “if you allow the English among you\, you are dead. Maladies\, smallpox\, and their poison will destroy you totally.” By May 1763 Pontiac was contemplating war. With the support of the neighboring Potawatomis and Hurons\, he hatched a plan to capture Fort Detroit. When a spy revealed the plan to the British\, Pontiac laid siege instead. Historians have called the conflict that followed a “conspiracy\,” “treason\,” or an “uprising.” For Pontiac and his followers it was a war of liberation. They fought the red coats and terrorized the frontier until finally facing the inevitable and admitting defeat in July 1766. In the end\, 450 British soldiers were killed\, 2\,000 American colonists were killed and another 2\,000 colonists driven off their land. Total Indian losses are unknown. \nJoin us on Wednesday\, JULY 6th\, The History Talk will take place in the D&H Canal Park’s Visitor Center located at 58 Hoag Road\, Cuddebackville\, NY. The talk is scheduled to start at 7:00 PM. \nThe suggested donation for this lecture is $7.00 for non-members and $5.00 for Museum members. \nFor more information please contact the Museum at 845-754-8870 or email us at nvam@frontiernet.net \n
