From its roots in the 17th century through the turbulence of the Revolutionary War, the Three Village community of New York faced the challenge of maintaining its own identity in a constantly shifting world. Working to balance history with progress, the Three Village Historical Society serves to promote a remembrance of the past while weaving new memories into the area's rich history. This publication represents the efforts of the society's history group, the Rhodes Committee.
