WELCOME TO SCHENECTADY- MOVING FORWARD Dear Chamber member: Your Chamber had an eventful and productive year in 2005, meeting challenges and expanding membership and programming opportunities. In a business environment and economy that has provided no shortage of issues to address, the Chamber has increased its commitment to member services and has taken proactive community leadership roles as well. During the 2005 year, and through the efforts of our Strategic Plan, we have continued to address the concerns of the business community in the county and have ensured that the Chamber is main advocate for its members and prospective members. We successfully preserved the 109th Airlift Wing’s home in Schenectady County and their mission to Antarctica. The Schenectady Military Affairs Council worked with many others to build community awareness that helped keep the Stratton Air National Guard Base as an integral member of our county. Together with other area chambers Schenectady continues to participate in the Tech Valley Chamber Coalition seeking new opportunities in the exciting expansion of Tech Valley, such as the new TechValley web portal www.techvalley.com. The Chamber has positioned itself as the lead facilitator for technology programs in Schenectady County. In the coming year we will be collaborating closely with other regional chambers to improve the regions technology value. In the area of tourism, we continue to host a growing travel industry that is creating a renewed interest in Schenectady and the many offerings we maintain. Our staff has made presentations to organizations in the county to spread the word about Schenectady’s many new highlights. Our Holiday parade and networking events have showcased some of the many improvements to the downtown Schenectady landscape. We are exceedingly proud of the programs we offer. During this past year, both the number of programs and the attendance at our networking, educational, and community events have reached all time highs. We play a key role in the area and have plans for increasing and improving our role going forward. On behalf of our board of directors and staff, I thank all of you for supporting The Chamber of Schenectady County. I am honored to be associated with driving a successful business climate, and I look forward to the coming year. Best regards, Martin S. Finn Chair, Board of Directors 3 GE_Bike_Ad.qxd 12/27/05 1:40 PM Page 1 GE Energy Getting there, together. At GE, we’re always looking for new ways to deliver innovation and value.

    Episodes from a Hudson River Town Peak of the Catskills, Ulster County’S 4,200-Foot Slide Mountain, May Have Poked up out of the Frozen Terrain

    1 Prehistoric Times Our Landscape and First People The countryside along the Hudson River and throughout Greene County always has been a lure for settlers and speculators. Newcomers and longtime residents find the waterway, its tributaries, the Catskills, and our hills and valleys a primary reason for living and enjoying life here. New Baltimore and its surroundings were formed and massaged by the dynamic forces of nature, the result of ongoing geologic events over millions of years.1 The most prominent geographic features in the region came into being during what geologists called the Paleozoic era, nearly 550 million years ago. It was a time when continents collided and parted, causing upheavals that pushed vast land masses into hills and mountains and complementing lowlands. The Kalkberg, the spiny ridge running through New Baltimore, is named for one of the rock layers formed in ancient times. Immense seas covered much of New York and served as collect- ing pools for sediments that consolidated into today’s rock formations. The only animals around were simple forms of jellyfish, sponges, and arthropods with their characteristic jointed legs and exoskeletons, like grasshoppers and beetles. The next integral formation event happened 1.6 million years ago during the Pleistocene epoch when the Laurentide ice mass developed in Canada. This continental glacier grew unyieldingly, expanding south- ward and retreating several times, radically altering the landscape time and again as it traveled. Greene County was buried.

New events, businesses, initiatives and people have been coming to the city and surrounding communities to make their mark on one of the oldest settlements in New York State. As a native to the area, I see two sides to this; it is great to see a new swing of development, making Schenectady attractive to those who don’t already call it home. However, as developers seem to be changing the cityscape ever faster, it is interesting to note where nature has taken its course. As part of my 2018 internship with the SCHS, I explored several locations in rural Schenectady County abandoned by their former residents. For most of its history, Schenectady County’s economy was primarily agricultural. Farms dotted the landscape from Duanesburg to Princetown to Rotterdam. With the 20th century came a transition from farming to industry. Suburbs began to sprawl, bolstered by the growth of GE and the development of the automobile. The landscape and the culture of Schenectady County changed dramatically during the 1900s, as towns like Glenville became suburbs of city employees. Locals shifted their aspirations from self-sufficient or market-enterprising farms to a house in the GE plot and a college degree. The demographics of Duanesburg and Princetown changed as suburbanites moved in and farmers moved out. Today, many farms lay abandoned, their fields ever fallow.

As the English-speaking population grew, so did a desire for services in English, primarily driven by members of the Church of England, the official church of the Province. The city‘s population, decimated following its destruction in 1690, was about 300 households in 1759 when land for an English chapel was purchased.1 Ground was broken the same year for a building originally planned as a chapel for all English speaking peoples,2 and Presbyterians and other ―dissenters‖ (non-Anglican Protestants) participated in both land and material acquisition. Construction began in 1762. As for the Presbyterians, while the actual date of organization is unknown, the best current approximation is 1760. Friction developed early on between the two competing English groups. A 1765 letter from the Schenectady Anglican churchwardens to Sir William Johnson sought his acceptance as a trustee and his support for a petition before the Governor to grant the congregation a ―Charter to Secure their Rights and privileges in the Church built here‖ in order to ―prevent for the future the presbyterians from making any unjust attempts on the priviledges in the Church.‖3 –Continued on Page 4 John C.

    Schenectady County Historical Society Newsletter Vol. 65, No. 1, 2021 | 518.374.0263 | schenectadyhistorical.org Schenectady's Relationship to Native America by Mike Diana, Education & Programs Manager An Introduction For many people, “American” history begins with European exploration of the continent. From there, the narrative invariably centers on the colonial perspective and, after 1776, the perspective of the United States. Consequently, the general public is generally uninformed about the Native American history that both predates the Pilgrims and persists to the present. And this article is by no means capable of addressing this broad historical issue. So let’s turn from this historical macrocosm to the microcosm of our own city, Schenectady. For the first century and a half of its existence, Schenectady shared a unique relationship with its neighbors to the west, a people known colloquially as “the Iroquois.” In my interactions with the public, I find most people misunderstand that relationship. Some visitors tend to imagine the Iroquois as a nebulous threat to the European settlers of Schenectady. Other younger visitors might think of the Iroquois as victims of the inexorable colonial and American conquest of the continent. Both conceptions are too simplistic. And so, in this article I will try my hand at describing the connection between the Iroquois and Schenectady. I’ll begin with a very basic introduction to who the Iroquois are. I’ll proceed to show how our city started as a small trading town, the vital point of contact between the Iroquois and the British colonial world. We’ll see how Schenectadians of the time were intimately familiar with the Iroquois and vice-versa.
