Lake Cossayuna & Vicinity: History and Portraits of the Past

Lake Cossayuna & Vicinity: History and Portraits of the Past

This book became possible when approached by a member of the Town of Greenwich Bicentennial Committee looking for information on the Cossayuna Fire Department. A slideshow presentation of old photos of the area was created which turned into four years of collecting more photos and stories and information of the area, which in turn was the creation of this book. This book includes about 350 photos of old post cards and photos, along with some new photos. Some of the history includes: A poem written by Mary Louis Richards - Maps and facts of Cossayuna - History and Director of Cossayuna that was published in 1957 - Articles that were published in the Greenwich Journal and Salem Press - Over My Shoulder , columns by J. Cutshall-King - Along with other history on Cossayuna You will find Portraits of the Past that include School Houses in the areas - Lakeville Baptist Church - Cossayuna 10-Point Fish and Game Club - Veterans Memorial Park - Grocery Stores, Taverns, and Local Businesses - Cossayuna Volunteer Fire Department and Auxiliary - Cossayuna Lake Improvement Association - Justamere Club - Post Office - Hotels & Inns - Homes, People & Old Photographs - Along with Pictures of the 21st Century
