Town of Oakfield and Genesee County Maps
At 10 Forest Ave. in Oakfield we find another home of rather large field cobbles belonging to Mrs. Dorothy Hammond. Interestingly, its deed goes back to Colonel Alfred Cary, for whom the village was originally named Caryville and through whose philanthropy, the well-known Cary Seminary was established.
