About the Crooked Lake Review
The Crooked Lake Review is a local history
magazine for
the Conhocton, Canisteo, Tioga, Chemung
and Genesee river valleys,
and for the Finger Lakes and Lake Ontario
regions of New York State.
It is a review of the accomplishments of the men,
women and
families who settled in these regions,
built homes, cleared farms
and started businesses. It also reviews the present work and aspirations
of the people who were born here or who came to live here.
The Crooked Lake Review exists through the generosity of the people
who write
and contribute their stories, essays, biographies, comments, reviews of books,
and discoveries of early news items for publication.
Martha and William Treichler founded the Crooked Lake Review. When
they arrived in New York State in 1975, Martha and Bill became members
of the Steuben County Historical Society to learn more about the history of
this region. They met people through the Society who became writers for the
Crooked Lake Review. Frequently readers offered stories for publications
and became regular contributors.
The first issue of the Crooked Lake Review
appeared in May 1988.
Issue 133 Winter 2005 was the last print edition. Starting
with
Issue 134, the Crooked Lake
Review was published online only.
All the articles from the print editions
have been added to the website.
In August 2008 after Bill died,
the Crooked Lake Review
switched
to a blog format for
new articles. David Minor,
a long-time contributor to the
Crooked Lake Review,
became
the editor
of the Crooked Lake Review
Blog
and maintained it through December 2017.
As of February 2023, Martha still responds to comments and
suggestions.
