Some of the more than 180 items donated to the county were on display in
the Niagara County Courthouse rotunda this afternoon.
|
Cummins' great-grandson Melvin Jones was on hand this afternoon to make the donation in the rotunda of the Niagara County Courthouse. Niagara County Clerk Wayne F. Jagow gleefully accepted the donation on behalf of the Niagara County Historian's Office.
"This is a treasure for us in Niagara County," said Jagow. "These letter document intangible yet very, very important moments in our history."
"We are honored that you have entrusted us with these priceless documents," Jagow added.
It was 1864 in the Niagara County Courthouse. |
The collection will be made available to the public for research, according to Jagow's office.
