Transfer for the Utica and Schenectady Railroad Company signed by Erastus Corning. Superb signature! Portrait and biography included. The Utica and Schenectady Railroad was chartered April 29, 1833; as the railroad paralleled the Erie Canal it was prohibited from carrying freight. Revenue service began August 2, 1836, extending the line of the Albany and Schenectady Railroad west from Schenectady along the north side of the Mohawk River, opposite the Erie Canal, to Utica.

Erastus Corning (December 14, 1794 \" April 9, 1872) was an American businessman and politician from Albany, New York. A Democrat, he was most notable for his service as mayor of Albany from 1834 to 1837, in the New York State Senate (1842\"1845), and in the United States House of Representatives (1857\"1859, 1861\"1863).

He worked as a clerk in his uncle\'s hardware store for six years, then moved to Albany, New York to work for the retail business owned by James Spencer. Corning eventually became the senior partner in the enterprise, which he combined with businesses he inherited from his uncle to create Erastus Corning & Co. The Corning company sold ironware, including tools and farm implements, nails, stoves, parts for railroad cars, and rails for railroads. John V. L. Pruyn married Corning\'s niece Harriet, and Pruyn and Corning became partn Item ordered may not be exact piece shown. All original and authentic.
