 camp and another on Van Wormer's bay with but few relics. Most 

 of these sites are mentioned in the History of the town of Queensbury, 

 by A. W. Holden but more definite notes were furnished by Rev.

 There are several small sites along the creek leading to Dunham's 

 bay. Early relics, but Holden says that they are mostly recent 

 in Queensbury.

 along a small creek and pond extending over a square mile. Early 

 relics and an unexplored mound in a creek bottom.
