The community of Four Locks rose out of the canal’s establishment of four locks (47-50) and associated business where the canal took a short cut through Prather’s Neck. Construction work took place from February 1836 through May 1839. Family names included Flory, Flynn, Snyder, Meyers, Taylor, Fernsner, Bower, Mouse, Hart, Mosier, Crawford, Prather and Hassett. The last two families played prominent roles at the founding of the community and held leadership roles at various times (Mastrangelo).
