Kirkwood, New York - City and Town Halls on Waymarking.com

"Crucial to the town's early development was the Erie Railroad. For nearly a century the Erie provided employment in construction, maintenance, and operations and provided freight and passenger links to the rest of the country. It provided a reliable means for goods to be shipped into town and milk and other products to be exported. It was a busy time for business. Typical first-person accounts of 19th century activities were: "a boxcar load of kitchen stoves arrived at the depot"; "went to New Milford to buy a timber lot"; "went Out West (near Olean) on a cattle drove"...In 2 centuries Kirkwood has prospered and progressed from a settlement on the river to a thriving agrarian society, and finally to a community blend of rural, residential, recreational, commercial, and light industry."
