Palmyra Historical Museum (Phelps General Store)

The Palmyra Historical Museum, in the old Phelps general store on Market Street, is a small museum of the village's history. New York ghost lists include it, with stories of vanishing cats, a full-bodied apparition, the smell of ash, flying toys and tugged clothing, and of children's laughter after a fire. Local legend links the activity to the Phelps family, whose daughter Sybil never married. The reports come from staff and visitors.
