Books on Local History


Because of my love for history and the area that I live in, I have written several books about the town and people of Bethany 's past (Genesee Co. NY) -

  • The Town and the People
  • The Poor House, 1825-1900
  • The Poor House Revisited
  • Mary Erwin, Poetess of Bethany
My dearest friend has also published two books, novels with the setting in early Bethany and western NY state ~ UpSouth: Spring and UpSouth: Summer.

You can find all these books for sale at the Gift Shoppe in Batavia by clicking the link below:

Favs: Books !




I can't believe I haven't already mentioned that one of my favs is READING !

What are you reading now? A few titles I've recently read include :
  • Chain Reaction: Story of Rachel Scott by Darrell Scott
  • Jade Green by Phyllis Reynolds Naylor
  • If You Will Ask, Oswald Chambers
  • Skidboot, An Amazing Dog by R. Westmoreland & David Hartwig
  • The Canopy by Angela Hunt
Yes, I know - quite a variety! My special likes are non-fiction [biography, inspiration] and historical fiction. I read a lot of young adult fiction, also, in preparation for students I work with.
I'm in hopes of putting some novels online here - in the meantime, you can visit one of my favorite sites - [click below]
A Celebration of Women is a perfect spot to spend a lazy summer afternoon, or a snug-in-the-house-snowed-in-day! Enjoy! - and let me know what you found there to read!
