Little Falls, NY

  • This day in history: November 20

    1873

    The big steam fire whistle, bought by the Board, has been located on the Mohawk Mills (Old Stone Mill.)

    1896

    Five shares of Little Falls National Bank stock were sold at auction ($800 per share) and ten shares of National Herkimer County Bank stock ($850 per share) from the estate of Jonathan Beattie. The prices show the high standing of our local banks.

    • Many thanks to Louie Baum for his research for This Day in History.
