Albion Historian

The Albion Historian is the local history resource for the town of Albion in Oswego County, with Altmar as its home base. In New York, municipal historians are appointed to look after a community’s records, photographs and stories, so a historian is often the first call for anyone curious about the past.

Altmar sits near the Salmon River in northern Oswego County, an area best known for its fish hatchery and for the salmon and steelhead runs that draw anglers. A historian’s office is a good place to start for questions about the old families, buildings and events behind the area.
