My grandfather was born and raised in upstate N.Y. Mainly Gloversville and
Fulton County. He left behine journals which he kept from 1901 until his
death in 1940. I've read the ones in my possession and the early ones in
1901 - 1904 mention going to his parents on New Year's Eve to the "New Year's
TREE". My father, born in 1910, didn't know what it was and I've asked
everyone from that area if they know anything about it and noone does.
