At the Hudson Falls Free Library, we are passionate about local history! If you would like to learn more about our history-rich area, celebrate Local History Month by exploring the resources we have on offer:
- Visit our two local interest collections in-person at the library. We have titles on Hudson Falls, Kingsbury, Glens Falls, Saratoga, the Adirondacks, and more. Who saw Bigfoot in New York State? What’s the big deal about Cooper’s Cave? And what Revolutionary War turning points happened in our own backyard?
- Read a brief history of Hudson Falls on our Local History webpage.
- Explore our online resources to find out cool tidbits about your own family history or the history of Washington County.
