Just a note that these are only the historical markers that were installed by the NYS Education Department from 1926 to 1966. There are many, many more markers that were placed by other groups such as the DAR and especially the county and local historical societies. In Erie County, for example, the Buffalo and Erie County Historical Society and the Landmark Society have placed the majority of the historical markers here.
