Gradually we have been gathering pictures and memories
about the history of the Buffalo Colony before it became the Buffalo
Colony, so here they
are, somewhat in order, gathered together.
-
A visit in 2007 from three generations
of Jacobys, and some pictures they sent us.
-
An email sent to us by Annice Jacoby in 2007, together with a letter she wrote to the New York Times in 2003 after the article in the
Escapes section appeared.
-
A story (fiction) written by Annice based on her memories of Jacobys.
-
Pictures from Steve Tenenbaum
who spent "six of the greatest summers of my life at Jacoby's
Bungalow Colony in the 60s." This was before
the camp became Orthodox.
-
A picture from Sam Fenig,
who came to Jacobys as a kid in the 1950s.
-
A picture of the farmhouse in the 1930s from Rowena
Lachant, whose family was the first to farm the Colony. Roz
talked to her at length, and wrote an account of their conversation.
Pictures of Woodbourne from more than a hundred years
ago from Jean Noval, who works for
our insurance agent and whose family has lived in Woodbourne for generations.
