Early Industries Continued |
|
One of Napanoch's Oldest Industries. The Pulp Mill remainds are located on this site at the present time. |
|
In 1898 four men, Milton and Manny Wood and Fred and George Gosselin, were walking in the woods behind the |
|
Eastern New York Reformatory, then under consruction. They came upon a rock that seemed to contain gold which |
|
test proved it did. 1903 the Napanoch Gold Mining Co. was incorporated with capital stock of $500,000. |
|
However, the golden value did not materilize. |
