Stump Grinding

August 4th 5:00-8:00pm Main Street School Lawn

In March of this year, the Evans Historical Society hosted their monthly “Speaker Night” with NEW YORK STATE as the topic of focus. The evening’s extremely knowledgeable presenters were the amazing husband and wife team of Gifford and Sue Swyers. “Giff and Sue” are both retirees of the Lake Shore Central School System, members of the Evans Historical Society and certainly well-known members of our community! Their love of history shines bright and they had prepared a program that was fun and entertaining!

As Mr. Swyers stated in the beginning of the evening; we were soon to discover various things about New York State; “Things you never knew, things you forgot you knew and a few things you probably didn’t care to know! Their program was funny, interesting and yes, we learned quite a bit! The full house of attendees loved each and every minute of it!

After the presentation, we had time to visit and socialize. Edie Willer, a member of the Evans Historical Society, had brought a photo relative to the topic of New York State with her and we found it so interesting, that we asked her to prepare a story to share along with the photo - of which she graciously obliged. The following is told in her own words: “One of Angola’s “recent” residents, Edith (Anderson) Willer is pictured here at right when she was Western New York’s Maple Queen in 1957. She and contestants from Central and Northern regions (names unknown) attended the State Maple Festival in Syracuse and served breakfast to two governors, W. Averell Harriman of New York and Joseph B. Johnson of Vermont. Later, one of the other two girls was chosen to represent the entire state.

Edith’s father Willard Reynolds and other maple producers of Cattaraugus County began the Annual Maple Festival in Franklinville where she was chosen as “Western New York Maple Queen”. Her mother Marian Reynolds was the photographer who took the picture for the Olean Herald where she was on staff for 30 years. Edith is a retired Angola, New York mail carrier.”

We are grateful that Edith allowed us to use her story and photo(s) and we believe it ties in nicely with our continued learning about New York State!
