County History Center in Ballston Spa Welcomes Four New Trustees

BALLSTON SPA — Four new trustees will join the Saratoga County History Center board this month.

William Allerdice has worked on and off for his family’s business, Allerdice Building Supply, Inc., and is currently at his father’s side.  A graduate of Saratoga Springs High School, he has sat on the boards of both Friends of Lake George Opera and Universal Preservation Hall. 

Andrew Collier is a native of Lancaster, Pennsylvania, and a graduate of Saint Francis University with a degree in U.S. History.  He is currently employed remotely by the National Public Pension Coalition, located in Washington, DC. 

James Richmond worked in Power Systems at General Electric for 40 years, after which he concentrated on his lifelong passion for history.  He has published two books: War on The Middleline; and Milton, New York, A New Town in a New Nation (with Kim McCartney).  In 2018, he was a founding member of the Saratoga County History Roundtable, whose mission is to expand interest in our local history through presentations, research, articles, and tours. 

Frederick E. Sober, Jr. is lifelong resident of Saratoga County.  He holds a bachelor’s degree from Siena College, and a Juris Doctor from University at Buffalo.  He is an avid history enthusiast and has practiced law for 25 years.

The perspectives and professional experiences of Allerdice, Collier, Richmond, and Sober will allow the History Center to pursue new avenues of historic preservation and community outreach.
