Another great piece of history we have received at the Stratford, NY Historical Society was a framed wedding certificate for David Henry and Sara Davis of Stratford, NY.
David Henry was the son of David and Margaretta Helterline, prominent Stratford residents. Sara was the daughter of John Davis. David Henry was a farmer who at one time owned property on what is now Piseco Rd. He was also, along with his father, one of the first people to build a silo in Stratford.
An interesting story behind this certificate. This framed certificate was found at auction in Albany.
