The Loomis Gang of Nine Mile Creek

Vicky House, Oxford Town/Village Historian, will share her PowerPoint Presentation on the “Gang” that dominated upstate New York for decades. From counterfeiting, horse stealing, witness intimidation, rape and even murder, this family reigned over the countryside and left their mark in our history.

Whether or not you are a descendent of the Loomis family, you will want to hear what started their reign and how it ended. If you are a descendant of the Loomis family, we would love to hear what stories your ancestors shared with you.
