The Conklin Mills and Falls LaFayette, NY

The Conklin saw and grist mills and the mill house are gone, reclaimed by forest growth. All that remains is the beautiful Conklin Cascades or Falls. Destined to become a New York State park in 1929 and the second failed attempt by Onondaga County Parks in 1962, ＂the Beauty Spot of Central New York＂ remained in the hands of multi-party land ownership. This publication is documentation of the Conklin family millers, their businesses, homes, family members and neighbors of ＂Marionville＂, later Berwyn, and contains a multitude of rare photographs of this section of Onondaga County in New York.
