In this concise history of the government of the incorporated village of Warsaw, New York over its first 100 years, Bishop traces its growth from a small hamlet, just a few years past the pioneer era, into a thriving community of nearly 4,000 residents, equipped with almost all the municipal improvements expected by mid-twentieth century citizens. This unique perspective on Warsaw’s history offers genealogists valuable facts for crafting narratives about Warsaw ancestors, including details such as the introduction of street lights and the origins and changes of street names up to 1945.
