Little Falls, NY

  • This day in history: October 18

    1855

    M. Bowes built the Octagon house on Prospect Street.

    1876

    Dean Miller, born a slave in Danube at the home of General Nicholas Herkimer, now owned by his brother, George, died today at age 76.Mrs. Miller gained the respect and admiration of all of whom she ever came in contact – her virtues were many. Three descendants of the Herkimer family erected a monument to her memory at her grave at the “Colored People’s Burying Ground” in the Church Street Cemetery.

    1933

    The city has received a consignment of 1,900 pounds of pork from the federal government for needy families and the unemployed. The meat must be given to the families in addition to whatever other food supplies the family has been getting.

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