The four Oakfield hotel proprietors in 1917. Shippey built and operated the West Shore Hotel, which stood at 35 South Pearl Street for many years. It has been replaced by a one story brick building which was once a barber shop, and is now an apartment. Wilson built a hotel in 1906 on the location of the fire-stricken Oakfield House, adjacent to the Pearl Street railroad tracks. Known for many years as the Wilson Hotel, it is today called the Oakfield Hotel, owned and operated by the Scopano family. Zirbel was a local blacksmith who operated the Arnold House, with blacksmith shop out back, later a mechanic's garage. I do not know the history of the hotel out on the Lewiston Road. Anybody? From the 1917 Ledger of New York State Excise Tax Records.
