Owner's Description

Salem, NY The People's NB Ch. # 3245 PMG 10 $5 1929 Ty 1 SN C000140A pp C16/89. From a scarce and seldom offered Washington County bank that fell to the receiver in 1931, this well circulated but intact example is one of only five small size in the census. Salem was first settled in 1761 by Joshua Conkey and James Turner who as soldiers in the French and Indian War, passed through the territory. In 1764, Alexander and James Turner acquired a patent which was soon divided up between the New Englanders from Pelham Mass. and a group of Scotch-Irish Presbyterians led by Dr. Thomas Clark from Ballybay, County Monaghan, Ireland.
