PART 3: THE 1894 ASBURY METHODIST SOUVENIR & COOKING MANUAL, CROTON ON HUDSON SCANS

Welcome to Everything Croton, a collection of all things Croton--our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools--in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.

Well it's been a long time since your editor promised to publish more from THE ASBURY METHODIST SOUVENIR AND COOKING MANUAL--but a recent spring cleaning turned up the xerox copy at last! Click on the images below...

A little background: In December of 1894, the Ladies' Aid society of Croton's Asbury Methodist Episcopal Church published a "Souvenir and Cooking Manual". It was reprinted by The Croton Historical Society in 1975 as part of the village's many Bicentennial of the American Revolution celebrations. CLICK ON THE PHOTOS BELOW FOR MORE SELECT--AND VERY RANDOM-- SCANS FROM THE BOOKLET---finally some recipes! And a page of old "Sing Sing" a.k.a. Ossining and Croton ads.  Stay tuned for more.

  1. Really cool to see these old ads though I'm not so sure about the pudding recipes!
