Does anyone know what statues these are and where they are in Seneca County? The answer is below but try to guess and see if you know your history?

Answer: The M’Clintocks of Waterloo

Late in 1836 the Thomas and Mary Ann M’Clintock family moved from Philadelphia to Waterloo. While the M’Clintock family lived in Waterloo (1836-56), Thomas and Mary Ann M’Clintock and their two oldest daughters, Elizabeth and Mary Ann, were active Quaker abolitionists and supporters of the Underground Railroad. They were also major organizers of the first woman’s rights convention in Seneca Falls, NY, in July 1848. As abolitionists, they signed antislavery petitions; served as officers in local, regional, and national antislavery societies; wrote letters to national antislavery newspapers; organized antislavery fairs; hosted major antislavery lectures; and used their home as a stop on the Underground Railroad.

Thomas M’Clintock personally threw himself wholeheartedly into antislavery activity. He put his talents to work in Waterloo as soon as he arrived. In December 1836, the very month that Thomas M’Clintock purchased his first drugstore from Samuel Lundy, he is one of the twenty Waterloo residents that formed an antislavery society. Thomas M’Clintock became an agent for the Liberator, sold antislavery almanacs, lectured on abolitionism, wrote abolitionist articles, and organized local antislavery meetings. He became a vice-president of the Western New York Anti-Slavery Society. In 1843, he joined the Board of Managers of the American Anti-Slavery Society, and in 1848, he became a vice-president of the American Anti-Slavery Society.

Much of the reforming work on the M’Clintocks took place in the M’Clintock Drugstore which was located starting in 1839 in No. 1 Hunt Block. The M’Clintocks’ home at 16 East William Street was just north of their drugstore on Main Street. In their drugstore, the family sold only products “free from the labor of slaves.” The M’Clintock daughters worked as clerks in the store. In the early years of antislavery organizing, it was one of the few places that reformers could meet in the village. In the room above their store, Elizabeth M’Clintock opened a select school for girls. Then the M’Clintocks opened up this room for temperance and abolitionist meetings. There were meetings of the Waterloo Female Temperance Society. Several dozen local women belonged, including the African Americans Maria Jackson and her oldest daughter Mary. Abolitionists used this room, also. The biracial Disciples of Christ Church met here regularly after 1853. Several African Americans belonged to this church, including Thomas and Maria Jackson and their two daughters, Mary and Cornelia.

Do you know who’s house this was? .

Seneca County was a remarkable crucible of nationally important debates about the great American experiment in democracy and about the meaning of the Declaration of Independence, “that all men [and women] are created equal.” By 1848, local people came to some conclusions about these ideals of equality that the nation as a whole did not accept until after the Civil War.

The Bonnel-Dells were one of several Quaker families in Seneca County that played a major role in the reforming activism that took place, acting on their religious beliefs in equality. The concentration of these Quaker families in the Waterloo area, helps to explain why Waterloo, along with Seneca Falls, were the two key areas of activism in Seneca County in the years before the Civil War.

The Bonnel-Dell families all prospered in their Waterloo homes. Charles Bonnel and Henry Bonnell became farmers, amassing many acres of land. William S. and Thomas Dell owned a large nursery and were leaders in the Seneca County Agricultural Society. At the county fair in 1848, William Dell won $1 for the best “twenty kinds of apples” plus 25 cents for the best apple seedling and another 25 cents for the best fruit trees.

Both male and females in these families were active in reform efforts. Because he was opposed to all war, Charles Bonnel refused to pay war taxes, which led him to be fined and imprisoned and his property impounded. Henry Bonnell and William S. Dell signed antislavery petitions. Rachel Dell Bonnel, the oldest child of Charles and Deanna Dell Bonnel, signed the Declaration of Sentiments adopted at the July 1848 Seneca Falls woman’s rights convention, as did her uncle William S. Dell and cousin Thomas Dell.

The first National Protective Legion Lodge was organized in Waverly on October 16, 1890 with forty one charter members. A preliminary certificate authorizing the Association to commence business was granted by the Insurance department of the State of New York on March 27, 1891. On the 17th of August following the incorporators having made affidavit, that at least two hundred eligible persons had applied for membership and that the total amount of certificates issued by the association was not less then the $ 400,000 the certificate having been issued upon the application of Edwin E. Rogers, M. Quigley, A.K. Gore, F.E. Lyford, P.L. Lang, F.A. Sawyer Dr. W.N. Hinton, H.C. Brewster, and F.W. Merriam.
