SUMMARY:From the Hudson to the Shawangunks: the Erie and O&W Railroads
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a History Talk with Bob McCue Titled:\nFrom the Hudson to the Shawangunks: the Erie and O&W Railroads \nThe Erie Railroad arrived in Orange County in the 1840’s and boosted the county’s business environment. Dairy production grew strongly and anthracite coal from Pennsylvania powered the county’s growing industrial base. Some 30 years later the O&W Railroad\, a regional rail line\, arrived in Orange County. Both the Erie and the O&W had major rail yards in Middletown making that city an important transportation hub. Come hear Bob McCue describe the\nchanges brought about by these two railroads and why they were so important to the mid-Hudson Valley. \nThis event takes place at The D&H Canal Park Visitor’s Center\, 58 Hoag Road\, Cuddebackville\, NY 12729 Just off Route 209 \nSuggested Donation: $5.00 Members $7.00 Non-Members

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:Saturday Night Music Appreciation Society With The Storyville Serenaders Hot Jazz and Blues
DESCRIPTION:The Neversink Valley Museum of History and Innovation is happy to announce the next concert of its 50th Anniversary Season and the next gathering of The Saturday Night Music Appreciation Society where we will present a concert with The Storyville Serenaders featuring Jeff Weinman on the piano and Ms. Doli Grace vocalist and comedian. They will be performing on Saturday Night August 26th at 7 PM. @ The D & H Canal Park Visitor’s Center Pavilion located at 58 Hoag Road in Cuddebackville\, NY. \nThe Storyville Serenaders show is a trip back in time to a prolific era between 1910 and 1930 when hot jazz and blues tunes of the New Orleans tradition were forming in districts all over the city. One of those areas was the famed Storyville Red Light district. Jazz was new and piano players and singers entertained from the stages of vaudeville theaters\, back alley speakeasies\, and in the notorious Storyville houses of ill repute. Jeff Wineman\, with his classic stride and barrel house blues sound\, and the smooth and sultry vocals of Ms. Doli Grace will transport you back to a time when performers were old- fashioned entertainers who brought theatrical flair and vaudeville-style comedy to their shows.\nYou will hear classic tunes from Louis Armstrong\, Jelly Roll Morton\, Ethel Waters\, Spencer Williams\, and Bessie Smith as well as classic jazz tunes from the American Songbook.

SUMMARY:History Talk with Historian Steve Skye on the D&H Canal Feeders
DESCRIPTION:Join Steve Skye\, the historian at the Delaware and Hudson Museum of History and Innovation as he explores the role that the Neversink River played in the success of the D&H Canal. Crossing the southern corner of the 17-mile long Summit Level at Cuddebackville\, the Neversink helped ensure a continuous flow of water into the canal. The river was the backbone of an extensive network of reservoirs that the canal managers relied on to supply water to the canal’s highest section. Whilst some of the reservoirs emptied directly into the canal\, many of the D&H “ponds” poured their waters into the Neversink River and thence into the canal. Without the agency of the river to connect the reservoirs to the canal\, there would not have been enough water to keep the canal boats afloat during periods of drought. Today\, the reservoirs built by the canal company support summer vacation communities. In this way\, the D&H “ponds” continue to be a boon for the local economy.\nThis History Talk will be held August 9\, 2017\, at 7:00 PM at the D & H Canal Park Visitor’s Center\, 58 Hoag Road\, (just off Route 209) Cuddebackville\, NY. Suggested donation is $5.00 for members and $7.00 for non-members.\nThe Neversink Valley Museum is open Sundays from noon until 4:00 pm through October 28 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. \n  \nStephen Skye

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
