NOTE: When writing to the various historians, include a stamped, self-addressed envelope. Calls should be made during reasonable hours. Please remember - these folks are volunteers, often overwhelmed by the number of requests they receive, so keep your requests specific and short. Above all else - be patient.
FURTHER NOTE: Not to confuse you -- but this page contains some contact info for Hudson, which is in Columbia County. The two counties overlap somewhat, even though they are on either side of the Hudson River.
