Levi Sedgwick

Levi Sedgwick (August 11, 1800 - June 10, 1868) was the owner of a blacksmith shop on the north side of Albany Avenue west of Main Street at the foot of the hill under the shade of a large maple tree. A man of sterling character, he was a skillful workman of industrious and thrifty habits.

The workmen in the shops, their patrons, the stage coach passengers and teamsters in the taverns on Bishop's Corner, the people of the community who frequented the ballrooms and barrooms, and those other residents of the community who occasionally called at the post office in the Aaron Goodman tavern for their mail, all contributed to the life and activity of the community.
