Dating the Dave Walker Dugout Canoe

Donald A. Windsor

On Thursday March 31, 2011, Cornell professor Carol B. Griggs and her husband Bill came to the Chenango County Historical Society's Museum in Norwich to take 2 core samples from the Dave Walker dugout canoe.  One was from the front end and the other was from the right side.  Here are 7 photos of the operation.  We hope to report the results at our next meeting on Thursday evening July 7.
