Excerpt from Historical Sketches of Bridgewater, Oneida County, New York: With Papers and Anecdotes Relating to Pioneers and Events In presenting these pages I am conscious that many im portant facts may have been omitted and others appearing herein may not be complete, but the purpose has been to com pile in one book many facts that would be lost if they were not preserved in some such form. It is acknowledged that less has been written of the town of Bridgewater than any other town in the county as there has been no effort to collect interesting bits of history identified with the lives of the people and institutions growing out of its settlement covering more than one hundred years. Historic buildings and landmarks have passed away and their history with them. Prominent families, whose lives were impressed upon the town, are little heard of or known to this generation. Each succeeding year has made it more difficult to obtain information concerning the remote history of the town and, indeed, it is hard to learn much that will give a picture of the village of Bridgewater twenty to thirty years previous to the Civil War. Other periods seem to have passed and the records with them. However, here and there through some family tra dition or manuscript, old letters and records, we get a glimpse of the past. Through the kind assistance of the friends of Bridgewater this book has been made possible and with grate ful appreciation I acknowledge their help and consideration in making possible the preservation of these stories and historical facts.
