Sinopsis
Remsen and its surrounding townships come alive in a richly detailed local history that spans to 1898.

The book centers on the daily work of early settlers, the development of the village and countryside, and the gradual growth of social, religious, and business networks. It shares the challenges of gathering stories when records are scarce, yet it preserves a valuable, place-based heritage that helps readers understand how the region took shape over a century.

Excerpt from A Narrative History of Remsen, New York: Including Parts of Adjoining Townships of Steuben and Trenton, 1789 1898
For much valuable assistance I am indebted to Mrs. Eveline (allen) Rockwood, of Union City, Pa., long a resident of Remsen, and who from the time she was fifteen years of age taught school here and in surround ing districts for several years, thus having a most favor able opportunity for knowing intimately the people who resided here at that time. From various reminis cences written me after she had attained the age of eighty years and upwards, I have been able to give in these pages many names and historical facts that oth erwise could not have been obtained; and thus, only for her superior intellect, retentive memory, and kindly interest in aiding the work, it would have fallen far short of what it is.

Excerpt from A Narrative History of Remsen, New York: Including Parts of Adjoining Townships of Steuben and Trenton, 1789 1898
Perhaps it is superfluous to suggest to the reader who is familiar with Remsen, that the material from which these pages have been prepared was gathered from vastly wide and scattered sources - gleaned here and there, bit by bit, through years of patient effort; for in no one collection was there assembled anything like sufficient data from which a history of this region could be compiled with any degree of completeness. And it is with this fact in mind, that I wish hereby to acknowl edge my indebtedness to the following works for valu able information.
