The Cobblestone Society and Museum is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization and provides the educational Cobblestone Info Base as part of its mission "to preserve, to promote public knowledge of and appreciation for the historical and architectural values of cobblestone buildings and to promote and encourage historical research in the field".
To-date, almost 1000 structures and about 6500 photographs are included and documented in the Cobblestone Info Base. All of the known to me structures in New York state are located in 29 counties in Western New York. Estimates are that about 1000 cobblestone structures either exist or no longer exist in North America. Virtually all were built from about 1825 to 1865. Indeed, the architectural form is quite unique and rare in North America. To view the Cobblestone Info Base, access the URL: http://www.cobblestonemuseum.org/CobblestoneStructuresCatalog/CM0000.htm .
This is a serious endeavor that I have undertaken with The Cobblestone Society and Museum and Landmark Society of Western NY, and would appreciate any time and effort that you can provide to respond to this inquiry.
Best Regards,
