Hendrickson Hatch Fly Fishing Tournament
Malone, New York will host the 3rd Annual Hendrickson Hatch Fly Fishing Tournament. Anglers
are invited to come to town May 19th and 20th to fish one of the North Country's most productive
streams, the Great Salmon River. Flowing north through Franklin County, the Salmon River
drains the foothills of the Adirondacks and winds its way through the town and village of Malone
before dumping into the St. Lawrence River. Says local guide and committee member, John
Miletich, "This is just a fantastic river. What's more, we've timed the tournament to coincide with
one of the best hatches. If weather and conditions are right, we'll have some good action. Strong
hatches. Lot's of browns, rainbows, and brook trout. Some good sized fish, too. Hendrickson

Northern New York Historical Newspapers provides indexed access to selected historical newspapers from our service
area: Clinton, Essex, Franklin, Jefferson, Lewis, Oswego and St. Lawrence counties.
The images on this web site were scanned, processed by an optical character recognition program and converted to PDF
files. The contents of these PDF files were then indexed and placed on the Web.
The selection of titles has been limited by the availability of the title on microfilm and by the quality of the microfilmed
image. A number of newspaper titles provided scanned images too poor to process.
Particular thanks is extended to the Adirondack Museum Research Library for its assistance with this project.

Adirondack Harvest
Adirondack Harvest is a community organization formed out of concern for the loss and abandonment of farmland in the
Adirondacks. Members realized that to keep local food available and to preserve the scenic vistas that farmland provides,
farming needs to be profitable. Founding members also had a strong commitment to sustainable farms and wanted to insure
that farm-fresh food is available. Adirondack Harvest

Adirondack Community Trust
The Adirondack Community Trust (ACT) was established in 1997 as a new community foundation formed to receive gifts and
bequests from the public and to administer them as a permanent endowment for the broad charitable needs of the Adirondack
region. Many people want to give, but they are not quite sure how they can best make a difference. As experienced grant
makers in our region, we know the many and varied needs of local non-profit organizations and their capacities to deliver
quality programs and services to the community. We review financial information, audits and budgets. ACT

Northern New York Tombstone Project
In the early spring of 2000, I realized that records for Franklin County cemeteries were in appalling disarray. Records were
spotty, existing for some but not all cemeteries. There was no alphabetical index. Work that was complete had been done as
much as 50 years earlier and needed updating. As Town Historian, I had done the cemeteries in the Town of Moira a few
years earlier. I decided to try to extend that work to nearby townships, my ultimate goal being to create a fully searchable
CD-ROM containing tombstone inscriptions from every cemetery in Franklin County.
I began by visiting each cemetery and transcribing data from all cemetery stones. In smaller cemeteries, digital photographs
were taken of all stones. These were typed, alphabetized, and indexed. Next, the data was checked against the original field
notes taken in the cemetery. At this point, I searched the House of History in Malone, Special Collections at SUNY
Plattsburgh, and the Saranac Lake Union Free Library for previous cemetery transcriptions. If found, these were compared
to my typed transcription. Discrepencies were resolved by re-visiting the cemetery. Once I had completed all cemeteries
known to me, I contacted the Town Historian to make sure that I had not missed any. I especially inquired about private
cemeteries as well as small plots with only a few stones.
I would like to thank all of those who have been supportive in this project. Too numerous to mention, they kept me moving
forward even at times when I felt overwhelmed by the sheer size of what I am attempting to do.
In spite of my careful efforts, I am certain that these records contain errors. It is nearly impossible to be perfect with this
quantity of data. Please contact me if you see something that needs correcting. Northern NY Tombstone Project
