History
The north–south highway connecting Wellsburg to the Pennsylvania state line was taken over by the state of New York in the mid-1920s. It did not have a posted route number until the 1930 renumbering of state highways in New York when it became the southern half of NY 367, a new route extending from the Pennsylvania state line at Wellsburg to NY 17 (now County Route 60 or CR 60) in the hamlet of Lowman. The route continued north from Wellsburg to Lowman by way of a short piece of NY 17D (later NY 427) and Lowman Crossover. NY 367 was truncated to its current northern terminus at NY 427 in Wellsburg on January 1, 1949. The connector over the Chemung River between Wellsburg and Lowman is now maintained by Chemung County as CR 8.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“We know only a single science, the science of history. One can look at history from two sides and divide it into the history of nature and the history of men. However, the two sides are not to be divided off; as long as men exist the history of nature and the history of men are mutually conditioned.”
—Karl Marx (1818–1883)
“I feel as tall as you.”
—Ellis Meredith, U.S. suffragist. As quoted in History of Woman Suffrage, vol. 4, ch. 14, by Susan B. Anthony and Ida Husted Harper (1902)
“There is no history of how bad became better.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
