Photo 1: Horse Drawn Carriage Parade 

Our first photo for this week is of a parade featuring many horse drawn carriages and at least one marching band. The year of the photo is unknown.

Photo 2: Baron Steuben Building

And our second photo for this week is of the Baron Steuben building as it looked in 1928!

Have a great weekend!

Library Local History/Creation Station Resources:

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…

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 Photo Archive!
