Franconia Police Department welcomes part-time officers
click for larger version)
May 06, 2021FRANCONIA The Franconia Police Department recently hired two new part-time officers to fill voids left by outgoing Cpl. Zachary Chicoine and Officer Gary Emerson. Kerry Pomeroy and Zachary Bushway joined the department earlier this year.
Cpl. Bushway has been a familiar face at the Bethlehem Police Department for at least five years, while Kerry Pomeroy brings 26 years of law enforcement experience to Franconia. He was a Sergeant when he retired from the Raymond Police Department but continued to serve on a part-time basis until he moved north. We traded a Zach for a Zach and a Gary for a Kerry, joked Franconia Police Chief Mac Cashin.

Former Seneca County Historian Betty Auten in her March 1985 newsletter wrote about how Mrs. Permelia Story of Hector barged into the White House and met with President Lincoln! As I pursued my research, I found some similarities and some noteworthy differences in Gary Emersonâs article in the October 2008 Journal of the Schuyler County Historical Society. Both accounts leave little doubt that Story managed to meet with President Lincoln for a good two hours. I will leave it up to the reader of this article to decide if Story âbargedâ into the White House.
