Dear Bill:                                                         

We are on the steamer early sailing back
from  Pottersville. Left our  buggy at         
Schroon  Village. It will be an all  day trip
before we  return. Enjoyed it very  much.

Love from all.

On March 20, 1804, the Town of Schroon was annexed from the Town of Crown Point. Subsequently, on March
7, 1817, the Town of Minerva was taken from the Town of Schroon. On February 26, 1840, a part of the Town of
Schroon was given back to the Town of Crown Point. Some early records show the town name as "Scaroon".
The town was settled as early as 1797 by Scribners, Pettees, Lelands and Bowkers among others.
