PHELPS GENERAL STORE

PRINT SHOP

PALMYRA HISTORICAL

The Wm. Phelps General Store and Home Museum is where time stopped.  Meet the Phelps family who lived and worked here for 108 years!  Enter through the original 1826 Erie Canal doors where Palmyrans and "canalwers" alike would come to purchase provisions.  continue upstairs where weary travelers could find rest.  See examples of hand split lath from the original construction.  Hear other-worldly stories of Sibyl, the last of the Phelps' to reside at this address, who would allow no electric or running water to taint an old fashioned style of life.
