Hi everyone, here is our local history photo of the week!
(Click on the photo for a larger view)
The record for this neat photo is brief and it doesn’t give a year for the photo it does say:
“Float In Parade For Football Game – CFA vs. GlenCove”
I’ve never heard of GlenCove but then when I went to CFA it was a middle school and not a high school. So perhaps some of you know a thing or two about CFA Football and/or the GlenCove Football team?
If you know more than we do about our local history photos – please let us know!
Have a great weekend!

Library Local History/Creation Station Resources:
Don’t forget at the library you can scan your photos and slides to create digital family albums and slideshows; and even use one of the Circut machines, and other Creation Station equipment, to help you create a special paper family history album or calendar for 2017!
And here’s your weekly reminder that at the library you can scan your photos and slides to create digital family albums and slideshows; and even use one of the Circut machines, and other Creation Station equipment, to help you create a special paper family history album.
Also of note, we have the local paper, at times called the Corning Leader, Corning Journal or Corning Daily Journal, on microfilm from 1840 to the present — so you can visit the library and research local history and your family tree if you wish!
And…
If you find any old photos of the Corning area that you don’t know what to do with – you can always donate them to the library! We’re happy to add new photos to our Local History Photo Archive.
Glen Cove (Long Island) Played Corning in Back to Back games back inn the 1920’s. They were big affairs with parades through Glen Cove ending at the mansion of the state senator. I have some Newspaper accounts from the old Brooklyn Eagle if you are still interested.
