Western New York has a rich history that is sometimes strange, as with the stories of daredevil Sam Patch jumping from High Falls with his pet bear or the fossil of an unbelievable beast unearthed in Seneca Falls. There is also incredible history that lies forgotten in our own backyards. Does the President of the United States know that he owns a quarter acre in Steuben County? How about the ship graveyard in Hamlin or the Moravia cemetery washed away in a flood. Did you know that there was a high-speed wagon chase outside of Dansville? These stories and more never made it into the history books...until now.
