When the Marquis de Lafayette came to Fredonia in 1825, he found the village
illuminated by natural gasâ??the first such community in the world. While most Americans relied on candles for illumination, early
settlers near Fredonia noticed bubbles that could be lighted rising from the
bed of the Canadaway Creek and developed technology to collect enough to light
the village. Another man, Dr. Francis Brewer, realized that the thick black
substance could be converted to lamp oil, and it was suggested that if enough could
be found, it could provide an inexpensive way to light the world. Join local
author Douglas Houck as he tells the story of the first commercial developments
of natural gas and petroleum
products in the nineteenth century.
