Happy Friday everyone!
Here is our local history photo of the week.
This photo, obviously taken in 1935, is of a home in the City of Corning. Does anyone recognize the house? If you do recognize the house please let us know!
Have a great holiday weekend!

Hi everyone, here is our local history photo for the week!
The record for this photo indicates it is of “Members of the Home Defense” and that it was taken in 1918.
You’ll probably want to scroll in to take a closer look of all those dapper World War I era soldiers in their uniforms!
Have a great weekend!

Hi everyone, here is our local history photo of the week!
Our record for this photo indicates that it is of the Drake Family and that the photo was taken in Corning circa 1900.
The house in the background looks familiar – I wonder if I haven’t seen it on Second Street in Corning…
Have a great weekend!

Hi everyone, I know the calendar says it is Tuesday — but really it is Friday! Just kidding! Since I didn’t get to post a photo last Friday — here are two!
Photo 1: Train Wreck
Our record for this first photo only features a general date the photo was taken – 1912. Bonus points to anyone with sharp eyes who can tell the rest of us where this photo was taken!
Photo 2. Drug Store
Our record for photo 2 indicates it is of “Ferguson’s Drug Store – Smith Brothers Hardware & Langworthy’s Department Store.”
I believe the the businesses shown in the photos were in the City of Corning but am not sure — if you know where the businesses were located please enlighten us!
Have a great day!
