A Yates County Gallery
The links on this page will take the reader to collections
of articles about people, places and topics that have been important to
the county's history; also to pictures and maps that will illustrate the
county's way of life. These collections will be added to from time to
time, so it is hoped that visitors will come back to see what's new.
