MAYOR GUY A. COWLEY'S PHOTO HAS BEEN LOCATED!

As many of you know, finding a photo of former Mayor Guy A. Cowley (1912 - 1913) was a top priority for us.  Harold Tallman, Cresskill Historian in the 1960's, initiated and created a Wall of Honor photo display in the Borough Hall which presently displays photos of our mayors from 1894 to the present.  The frame is now filled thanks to the diligent efforts of Ms. Beth Potter of Haworth.For more on this story please go to our January 2010 newsletter which you can find on this web site.
