Notes for F
REDERICK DEVOE VANWAGENEN:
      When he was first married he ran two canal boats named "Fair Play" and "Play Fair". Later on he was a government contractor, building dams, locks, railroads. During the 1860's he built the lower dam at Fulton. A spring flood came and tore out all the "false" work, causing him to lose $25,000, having to give up his home. For a few years the family lived in Shortsville until they could get back the old home. At one time he employed 600 men. He was always helping the poor for he had to begin earning a living by driving horses for the canal boats. His father had died when he was 5 years old, and the next year he had to work driving the horses.
