Title A name given to the resource Holcomb Hall, SUNY Geneseo Description An account of the resource Winfield Holcomb Hall was built in 1969 and took its name from an earlier demonstration school at Geneseo. Its purpose was to provide hands-on experience for School of Education students in the classroom and in their research. It hosted the offices of the Geneseo Migrant Center (GMC), which Dr. Gloria Mattera had initiated two years earlier. Eventually some of the GMC functions were taken on by the Board of Cooperative Educational Services in Mt. Morris. It moved all of its operations there once Holcomb Hall was slated for demolition in 2010.

This advertisement lists out eighteen inducements for Easterners considering relocation. While it's clear that farmers still are the primary target, the text also mentions mechanics, and statistics on a rapidly growing population are meant to attract merchants of all kinds. Midwestern states were a direct competitor to New York agricultural interests.

Title A name given to the resource Honeoye Creek Wildlife Management Area Description An account of the resource This item consists of three images from a NY Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) management plan for a 750-acre area located in Ontario County. Much of the land had been used for agricultural production, with resulting soil exhaustion, silting of the creek, and loss of biodiversity. A map outlining proposed actions for the next decade shows how an area currently appearing as "natural" has a complex environmental history. Some fields are left open to support wildflowers and pollinators; in other areas, the expansion of forests via seed harvesting is underway. Honeoye Creek Wildlife Management Area is one of several featured in the OpenValley story map "Deep Roots."

Description An account of the resource This collection gathers documents for a Perry Knitting Co. exhibit on OpenValley. They are drawn from from three main sources. First, the Clark Rice Photography Collection at the Perry, NY Public Library. Rice was a prolific photographer in Western New York throughout the mid-20th century. This collection includes scans of his work, and copies of images from the turn of the century photographer Merrium Crocker, whose studio Rice purchased. Secondly, the Henry Page Local History Files. Page was president of First National Bank of Perry, and a local historian associated with the public library for nearly five decades. His uncle, William, had helped secure funding from the Carnegie Corporation for its establishment in 1900 and construction in 1914. The Page collection contains various historical materials and photographs accumulated by him over the years. Thirdly, we draw upon various public domain texts, such as maps from the Library of Congress or <a href="http://perrypubliclibrary.advantage-preservation.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">digitized articles from local newspapers</a>. All images here are selections from these collections, chosen for their relevance to OpenValley project. We gratefully acknowledge the generosity of the Perry Public Library and its Director, Jessica Pacciotti.

Title A name given to the resource Hostess House, Army Barracks Description An account of the resource Although used only for six months as a cantonment during WWI, this base in Plattsburgh, NY had a history dating back to the War of 1812 and continued to serve as an innovative Reserve Officer Training Corps. YWCA Hostess Houses, usually located upon military bases, were created to serve visiting families of service members and to ensure proper conduct among the men—as for instance during visits from hometown sweethearts. Hostess Houses operated within a gendered “separate spheres” paradigm yet also afforded women unusual opportunities otherwise unavailable to them: supervisory experience, for example, and in some cases designing the structures themselves. Almost all Hostess Houses were decommissioned after Armistice. This image has been lightly edited and resized for web exhibits; larger file available at source listed below.
