I got so many replies and so much info (just about everyone had something different to add) that I feel I should explain my query and give you folks a tidbit of history. The query was because I was sold a photo postcard as Champlain, NY and found out it couldn't be there. So I thought of Winooski's Champlain Mills Mall and asked the list about the flood. The postcard has never been postmarked, but has been written on the back and I want to let all of you read what it says. Typed exactly as written, but not signed by anyone: "This is the new mills were I made a x them buildings are swept away there was lots of men that work in the morning in that mill and they had to come out by the window on the roof of a shed about 8:30 am and at 10 am the shed was swept away" On the front is printed Champlain Mills Flood Scene; Mov 4th 1927; Huard Photo Co. On the big brick building three and a third windows are showing, and the other buildings are just the tops and the smokestacks showing. Thank you all for your help and if I can be of any help here in Essex Co., New York, let me know. I am going to pay attention to that Champlain Mills Mall next time I come to Burlington. Hope you enjoyed the trivia from the card. Gretna Longware, Elizabethtown, NY Surnames: Longware, Wilson, LaPrarie, Bradford
