The village was inundated to make way for the Delta Lake, a reservoir that supplies water to the New York State Barge Canal. The book shows well what life was like in a small country village along the Mohawk River in Oneida County, NY. Many of the village's structures were moved to higher ground, including a barn that is now located on my property in the adjoining village of Westernville. ( ) aucune critique | ajouter une critique

Home to a community of hardworking farmers and mill workers, the village of Delta stood along the banks of the Mohawk River until it was evacuated by the state to raise the water in the Erie Canal. Before the flooding of the river, Delta was a small country village with the same postmaster for over 30 years and families farming the same land for generations. In order to raise the water, the state approved the construction of five reservoirs across New York. The town was evacuated soon after, and the land that generations of residents toiled over now sits at the bottom of Lake Delta. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
