NYSAA Bulletin No. 26 — Croton Point Midden Excavation — Passage 5 (part 8)
[Louis A. Brennan et al. (1962)] We have not as yet found any similar evidences on the west branch of the river as were found on the east branch to strengthen our theory. It is possible we never may, as much of that area of the island has been developed and the evidences may be destroyed. At the present time, the area on which the site is located is up for sale to be subdivided into building lots. Grand Island's rapid transition from its present rural to suburban development may soon destroy the remaining evidence of the site, though we do intend to continue collecting from this area until, that time arrives. Artifacts gathered to date from the site include: Early Settler: Gunflints, oxen shoes, axes, china fragments, etc.
