Title A name given to the resource Kief's Diner Description An account of the resource Small lunch car run by Otto Kiefer was located on the Park Square in Avon, NY, perhaps as early as 1926. Born in Cohocton and raised in Wayland, Kiefer moved to Silver Creek, NY as the manager of an electric company. It was here that he probably learned about the Ward & Dickinson Co., which manufactured more than 300 dining cars between 1921 and 1949. Kiefer bought Car #41 in 1926 for a cost of $5,850 (about $80,000 in 2016) and offered an all-night menu, presumably for working residents and passengers traveling through on the Erie Railway. After Kiefer's sudden death in 1941 the business passed through a series of owners until it was moved to 25 Borden Ave. in Perry in 1946. The diner finally was dismantled in 1957. After Kiefer's death in 1940 it passed through a number of owners before being moved to Perry in 1946. It was disassembled in 1957.

Title A name given to the resource Mills of Genesee Valley Description An account of the resource Before the commercial extraction of fossil fuels from the Oil Creek region of northern Pennsylvania, most mechanical work in the Genesee Valley was done by human and animal power, or some source ultimately derived from the sun: burning wood, wind power, or flowing water. The exception to this, of course, was coal--by the 1880s America's dominant source of energy. Due to the Genesee region's ample supply of wood and running water, along with the cost of shipping coal, it's quite common to find instances of various water mills in the area's history. They were adapted to a wide range of uses: cutting wood into timber and milling it into specialized shapes (lumber mill); grinding corn into animal feed or for distilling alcohol (grist mill); grinding wheat or other grains (flour mill); creating boxes and other products from wood pulp (paper mill); fabricating metals (triphammer mill); powering industrial equipment (textile mill); and by the 1880s creating electricity via turbines. This collection gathers various documents concerning mills in the Genesee Valley. In addition to images and written texts, there is also an interactive map illustrating the density of their usage during the mid-nineteenth century. Still Image A static visual representation.

Work began in 1888, and in 1893 he suggested keeping a flock of sheep on its west side to evoke a pastoral mood and to keep the grass mowed. Flocks of sheep weren't uncommon at the time; the Sheep Field in Olmsted's central park started the trend in 1863, but the also were grazed in Brooklyn's Prospect Park, Franklin Park in Boston, Druid Hill Park in Baltimore, and Washington Park in Chicago. The sheep didn't remain for long, however, because in 1899 the pasture was converted into a golf course that still is in operation today alongside the Genesee River.
