I am looking for any and all information regarding distilling, distilleries,stills, taverns, farm distilling, 
production of whiskey, applejack, fruit brandies etc., etc., in New York State.
Particularly earlier periods  (Who, what,where, when, and how ).
I am helping to gather research and write a book on distilling in New York State and looking for any 
references to this subject.
From what we can tell very little research has been done on this subject and any and all help,leads, 
resources, will be acknowledged and shared to add to everyones elses knowledge base once we 
assemble our information.
Possible other references also may include will and probates records ( stills have been listed in wills as 
valuable property) along with land and tax records.
Thanks to all in advance !
Cheers,
Chris
