I believe SUNY Geneseo has a collection of Genesee Valley
Canal photos in its archives. Try Judith Bushnell, Head Reference Librarian and

Dear Mr. Buell:
Pam
Lamont suggested I contact you. I am trying to find pictures of the
Genesee Valley Canal. This was during the 1840's - 1870.
I
realize photography was not very widespread but perhaps there are some
pictures of people with the canal or structures associated with the canal in
the background.
If you have any thoughts about where to look further it
would be most appreciated.
Thank you.
