This is a nearby cottage in the town of Somerset was owned by the Kolarik family of Buffalo NY in the late 1960's and early 1970's they were our neighbors on Wardman Road in Kenmore, nice people. They moved to New Jersey and sold the cottage in either 1972 or 1973. I still like to check on it a couple times a year
