Raymond W LeMay III, Historian
Raymond W. LeMay III has spent the past 10+ years researching the Fairview Home. The history of this home and the children who resided there is near and dear to his heart. He wants nothing more than for the memory of these children to be remembered and honored.
LeMay is currently writing a book on the history of this orphanage.
FAIRVIEW HOME The History of the Fairview Home for Friendless Children of Watervliet 1888-1956 is scheduled for publishing in August 2015.
If you have information to contribute or would like to discuss this book,
UPDATE-*JULY 2015*
I am very pleased to report that new information has been located on the Fairview Home.
This of course has put off publishing of the history until this material can be fully examined.
The history will be published in due course until said information and materials can be fully examined.
Until such time the history will be shelved until this new information can be consulted and coordinated into the manuscript.
For more information please stay tuned to this page and website.
