In regards to the July 20th 1902 flood. Here are two of 5 photos I have. The others I'll post later on. Taken by N.W. Carey during the afternoon of July 20th, almost 115 years ago. Grove and Broad.

Back when my Grandfather Holdridge was in the Used Car business c. 1950s, (Pegg Road was still called "East River Road" then). He sold a Ford F1 panel truck to some guys that insisted they wanted to keep the post mounted spotlight on it, and because of that they got pulled over on their way downstate by police looking for deer jackers, and found the van loaded with moonshine."
