The Dam has served a valuable service but I wiah things would have been handled differently. The old Cornplanter camp sits in ruins and many historical area disappear daily.

He also traveled through the Isthmus of Panama and then overland to reach California in the gold rush of 1849. They were real pioneers! I too regret the breaking of the treaty with Cornplanter and the displacement of so many people. We can only find comfort that their descendants are doing well. Ultimately, the dam saved many lives. I just wish the matter had been handled differently. Shirley My great-great-great-grandfather, James Morrison, Sr., negotiated with Chief Cornplanter to build a sawmill in this area.

As with life everything has good and bad and even if many people fear change it's what offers us the most in life. The ending of many towns was sad for many but there have been positive events for all those that lived in th surrounding areas. The Indian reservation was the saddest event in my opinion but even they have really developed their new reservation and business there is expanding. I am not sure if that growth would have happened at the old reservation. (I still feel the breaking of the treaty was entirely wrong!) Denise http://www.thegardenersrake.com Megan, Love your thought!

It was very disappointing and shocking to those who lived in the towns affected to lose their houses and land. Sara I remember the town of Kinzua.
