GLOVERSVILLE - At least six people condemned by the legal system in the 1800s were hung in a portable gallows that was based at the old jail in Johnstown. Despite the years that have gone by, the hanging gallows still exist. The original top beam and hook from the gallows are part of a new exhibit at the Fulton County Museum. The exhibit also includes an old jail cell. The cell and gallows previously were at the former Fulton County Jail on East Montgomery Street in Johnstown. The building now is the Fort Johnstown Annex, which contains county offices and has been undergoing renovations. <http://www.leaderherald.com/page/content.detail/id/550473/Gallows--jail-cell-on-display-at-Fulton-County-Museum.html?nav=5011> -- Bob Sullivan Schenectady Digital History Archive <http://www.schenectadyhistory.org/> Schenectady County (NY) Public Library
