On July 4, 1914 - An explosion demolished the upper stories of an apartment building in East Harlem, killing anarchist Arthur Caron and several colleagues. Caron had been among those who protested the involvement of the Rockefeller family in April's "Ludlow Massacre." It appeared that Caron and his associates were building the bomb meant to kill John D. Rockefeller Jr., when it exploded.

(The Ludlow Massacre occurred April 20, 1914, when Colorado state troops and a private force hired by a Rockefeller-owned coal mining company attacked and destroyed a tent camp of striking miners and their families.)

An official report stated that at least twenty-five people - including fourteen children and two women - perished in the massacre. Earlier reporting put the death toll at a minimum of forty-five people, with women and children accounting for thirty of those deaths.

The history of the History Center, Part II

By Jonathan Monfiletto

A trustee of the Yates County History Center once asked me to look into the happenings of the History Center from the time it was founded in 1860 as the Yates County Historical Society until it was re-chartered in the 1920s as the Yates County Genealogical and Historical Society. My answer back to him was, indeed I could not find much of a record of activity of the historical society from about the mid-1880s until the late-1920s when the organization was re-formed.

In fact, from its incorporation on February 4, 1860, the Yates County Historical Society – despite being founded and operated by some of the pioneers of the county and their descendants – seems to have petered out rather quickly. Within a quarter of a century, the organization may have gone dormant – or it may just not have been as active and noticed in the community as it once was.

A newspaper notice dated December 18, 1885 states: “Why not reorganize the Yates County Historical Society? … We should be very glad to see this society placed on solid footing. There is a vacancy in the office of President. Important work could and ought to be done this winter. What say the members of the Society to a thoro [sic] organization.” However, an article in the Penn Yan Express of May 11, 1887 carries the proceedings of the Historical Society’s annual meeting, so perhaps the latter statement in the last sentence of the above paragraph is the true one.

Still, the Historical Society did apparently go dormant or extinct over the next 20 years or so. Beginning November 29, 1907, the Rushville Chronicle (whose content largely seems to duplicate that of the Yates County Chronicle) put calls out for the group. “If some of the people of Penn Yan would get together and call a meeting for the organization of a Yates County Historical Society there are a number of interested citizens of Jerusalem who would gladly join in such a commendable enterprise,” the first notice states. “Many interesting and important matters would thus be conserved, and new developments would be brought to light that are in the background, and which would be of inestimable value. The shadows of time too swiftly obliterate the footprints of our race. Every township in Yates county is storied with a rich fund of local history, wanting only the patient research of one who loves the work of developing the facts, to render a service of signal gratification to many people of the present period and of greater moment to succeeding generations, as the only means of any information of the people and events of the past upon the soil and scenes of the newly inhabitants. Every true man has a just pride in his ancestral domain, and will treasure its history, if developed, and perpetuate it as an heir loom [sic]. Who will start the nucleus in Penn Yan? Other counties have flourishing Historical Societies. Why not our own loved Yates?”

On March 27, 1908, the Rushville Chronicle (and probably the Yates County Chronicle) asserted: “Yates county furnishes abundant material to warrant the organization of a historical society. Little Yates is rich in tradition, in incident and in interesting experiences. … We trust the matter of organizing a Yates County Historical Society will receive active encouragement. There are an abundance of reasons why it should exist.” In response, on April 10, 1908, Miles A. Davis wrote to the newspapers: “I, for one, most heartily approve your recent suggestive article for the organization of a Yates County Historical Society. There is a wealth of historical material in every township which can be developed and conserved through organization, with stated meetings and suitable quarters.”

Nearly a decade later, the Rushville Chronicle of September 22, 1916 recites a story that “was reported at a meeting of the Yates County Historical Society,” though an article in the newspaper on December 21, 1917 seems to indicate the society was in the process of being organized. Yet, this process appears to have taken place in fits and starts, as the Rushville Chronicle of July 18, 1919 put out another call: “Do we wish to forget? Are we going to allow all of our traditions to fade away and be gone because we are too dull, or stupid, or indifferent to realize the value of a past which is wondrously rich in good things, and from which we constantly may draw healthful inspiration? We hope and believe not. And because we believe the undercurrent of devotion to that which has gone before us is strong and steady, we want to see a Yates County Historical Society organized.”

More fit and starts happened over nearly another decade, until the pace of the processed seemed to pick up in the late 1920s. The Chronicle Express of September 9, 1926 reports, “A number of citizens of Yates county during the past few weeks have been urging the organization of a county-wide historical society to preserve the many articles and relics of great historic value which are now in the county but which may at any time be lost.” On December 8, 1927, the newspaper reported a board of directors for the historical had been named. An advertisement a few months later on February 16, 1928 sought suggestions for a new name for the organization. Apparently, the Yates County Historical Society was an organization still chartered by the New York State Education Department, but its reincarnation could not charter itself under that name.

“Inasmuch as this organization has long been inactive, attempts were made to have the new organization substituted for the old. The department has refused to do this. Furthermore, the old membership corporation cannot be dissolved since there are no living members,” the item reads. “The new organization is therefore anxious to secure another name that will be appropriate and seeks the help of the public in securing a proper title.” This is apparently the moment when the Yates County Genealogical and History Society – the addition of an extra word constituting a new name for a new organization – was born. Indeed, the Penn Yan Democrat of January 11, 1929 notes the organization had received a charter under that name. In a letter in the Democrat on December 6, 1929, Society President Herbert D. Winters outlined the mission and objectives of the new historical society.

According to The Chronicle-Express of February 12, 1931, YCGHS held its annual meeting in its new museum space inside the Penn Yan Public Library, “giving the members of the society their first opportunity of enjoying the newly painted room, and of seeing the four new display cases and the several interesting historic articles already given or loaned for display.” Whether the historical society of 1860 had any kind of public museum space, this may have marked the first time YCGHS – or YCHS before it – had such a room. Subsequent newspaper articles reveal historical artifacts donated to YCGHS and its museum, including items connected to the Public Universal Friend.

In September 1942, it was reported the Oliver family had donated its home on the corner of Main and Chapel streets in the village of Penn Yan to the village as a community house, museum, and reading room. However, it wasn’t until January 1946 that YCGHS took action toward occupying space in what has become known as the Oliver House Museum. Then, the historical society would use the two north rooms on both the first and second floors for storage and display of historical artifacts, moving the museum collection from the library to the Oliver House. The village would make other rooms available to the organization as necessary, as other community groups shared the space inside the home built in the mid-19th century. Even then, it wasn’t until July 25, 1948 that YCGHS opened its new museum to the public, opening the space twice a week.

Starting October 1, 1949, the village trustees hired full-time custodians – Mr. and Mrs. Walter Abel – who lived in an apartment in the rear of the house and took responsibility for caring for the building. At the time, the Penn Yan Chamber of Commerce, the Penn Yan Recreation Commission, and the Yates County Red Cross had offices inside the home in addition to YCGHS’s museum. Starting July 1, 1963, the museum was open every day from 1:30 to 4 p.m. and seems to have taken on more space in the Oliver House. The basement contained displays of Native American artifacts, early carpentry and barrel making tools, and early Penn Yan fire equipment, while the attic featured displays of artifacts associated with homes, farms, and early grocery stores. On the second floor were arranged more than 200 early photographs of Penn Yan and Yates County.

In The Chronicle-Express of July 3, 1969, YCHGS advertised it had “four floors of interesting and valuable exhibits” that were available for public viewing on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons the last Saturdays of July and August, indicating the organization had taken on almost the whole of the space inside the Oliver House. In addition to the basement displays, there was a room dedicated to the Oliver family who built and lived in the home, a room highlighting the Public Universal Friend, and a room with local history books along with a collection of toys and dolls, a display of military paraphernalia, and other exhibits. In November 1974, the members of YCGHS met for the first time in three years for an open house at the Oliver House to plan a re-opening event the following May to show the public the renovations the village had completed on the building.

In February 1990, two rooms on the second floor that comprised the research suite were named in honor of Frank L. Swann, a former YCGHS president and a former Yates County historian. “Much of the research material now available in this room came from Swann’s extensive personal collection of local history files, donated to YCGHS in 1987 [the year Swann died],” an article in The Chronicle-Express notes. In August 2004, members of YCGHS opened the L. Caroline Underwood Museum next door on Chapel Street to the Oliver House Museum, in honor of the longtime Penn Yan Academy teacher who loved traveling, collecting, and history.

What is now known as the Yates County History Center celebrates 164 years since its original incorporation this week. Its mission remains to collect, preserve, and interpret the history of Yates County, increasing knowledge and understanding of the history for the betterment of present and future generations.

Un nouveau billet plein d’enseignement sur la vie de mes ancêtres…

[lordgodjehovahsway]

1 Chronicles 5: Rueben Was Removed From The Genealogical Record

1 The sons of Reuben the firstborn of Israel (he was the firstborn, but when he defiled his father’s marriage bed, his rights as firstborn were given to the sons of Joseph son of Israel; so he could not be listed in the genealogical record in accordance with his birthright, 

2 and though Judah was the strongest of his brothers and a ruler came from him, the rights of the firstborn belonged to Joseph)— 

3 the sons of Reuben the firstborn of Israel:

Hanok, Pallu, Hezron and Karmi.

4 The descendants of Joel:

Shemaiah his son, Gog his son,

Shimei his son, 

5 Micah his son,

Reaiah his son, Baal his son,

6 and Beerah his son, whom Tiglath-Pileser king of Assyria took into exile. Beerah was a leader of the Reubenites.

7 Their relatives by clans, listed according to their genealogical records:

Jeiel the chief, Zechariah, 

8 and Bela son of Azaz, the son of Shema, the son of Joel. They settled in the area from Aroer to Nebo and Baal Meon. 

9 To the east they occupied the land up to the edge of the desert that extends to the Euphrates River, because their livestock had increased in Gilead.

10 During Saul’s reign they waged war against the Hagrites, who were defeated at their hands; they occupied the dwellings of the Hagrites throughout the entire region east of Gilead.

Gad

11 The Gadites lived next to them in Bashan, as far as Salekah:

12 Joel was the chief, Shapham the second, then Janai and Shaphat, in Bashan.

13 Their relatives, by families, were:

Michael, Meshullam, Sheba, Jorai, Jakan, Zia and Eber—seven in all.

14 These were the sons of Abihail son of Huri, the son of Jaroah, the son of Gilead, the son of Michael, the son of Jeshishai, the son of Jahdo, the son of Buz.

15 Ahi son of Abdiel, the son of Guni, was head of their family.

16 The Gadites lived in Gilead, in Bashan and its outlying villages, and on all the pasturelands of Sharon as far as they extended.

17 All these were entered in the genealogical records during the reigns of Jotham king of Judah and Jeroboam king of Israel.

18 The Reubenites, the Gadites and the half-tribe of Manasseh had 44,760 men ready for military service—able-bodied men who could handle shield and sword, who could use a bow, and who were trained for battle. 

19 They waged war against the Hagrites, Jetur, Naphish and Nodab. 

20 They were helped in fighting them, and God delivered the Hagrites and all their allies into their hands, because they cried out to him during the battle. He answered their prayers, because they trusted in him. 

21 They seized the livestock of the Hagrites—fifty thousand camels, two hundred fifty thousand sheep and two thousand donkeys. They also took one hundred thousand people captive, 

22 and many others fell slain, because the battle was God’s. And they occupied the land until the exile.

The Half-Tribe of Manasseh

23 The people of the half-tribe of Manasseh were numerous; they settled in the land from Bashan to Baal Hermon, that is, to Senir (Mount Hermon).

24 These were the heads of their families: Epher, Ishi, Eliel, Azriel, Jeremiah, Hodaviah and Jahdiel. They were brave warriors, famous men, and heads of their families. 

25 But they were unfaithful to the God of their ancestors and prostituted themselves to the gods of the peoples of the land, whom God had destroyed before them. 

26 So the God of Israel stirred up the spirit of Pul king of Assyria (that is, Tiglath-Pileser king of Assyria), who took the Reubenites, the Gadites and the half-tribe of Manasseh into exile. He took them to Halah, Habor, Hara and the river of Gozan, where they are to this day.
