Bicentennial Brochures
History touches every aspect of our human existence, from our family roots to our municipal and industrial inventions, our educational edifices to our spiritual and religious spires. However, what we and our ancestors once cherished in the moment is often forgotten with time. This series of Bicentennial Brochures aims to refocus our attention on a few of those forgotten cherished moments in our Towns, Industries & Interests.
The Bicentennial Committee of volunteer historians and historical societies have taken the time this year, to highlight some of the lesser know history of Wayne County is these following simple, quick read, "rack" card brochures. They are all a mini-history lesson of special aspects of Wayne County, New York.
