The following errors, resolved and unresolved, have been found in the document "Cobblestone Buildings in New York State, A Survey by Robert L. Roudabush, 1976-1980". The location of the error is called out and the problem text shown in boldface italics. If noted as resolved, the correct text is shown; otherwise, if unresolved, the incorrect text is shown with an explanation. A misspelling, typographical error, illegible text, typeover correction, etc. of common words will not be listed in "Errata" unless it causes a meaning or information to be misconstrued.

Additional corrections and updates to the Roudabush Survey are provided in the Martin Wolfish corrections and updates document.
