This week the office received inquiries from several concerned citizens who wanted to know what happened to the historic butter factory commemorative plaque that has been in place since 1956. The stone is located at 6 Gouge Street, Campbell Hall, NY 10916. I went to ask the neighbors and to take a look and it is indeed missing. If you have any tips about what may have happened to this monument please let us know. The small metal plaque read: This spring,
