Other Family Members
Famous and Infamous

In the 1970s at a conference held in Buffalo, NY to discuss the condition of their Frederick Law Olmsted (FLO) designed parks, I had the opportunity to address the group and let them know that there were many other interesting members of the Olmste(a)d family than the famous Frederick Law Olmsted. The following is just a sampling of Olmste(a)ds that I’ve run across over the years. I am sure that their are many more and invite submissions to be added to the list.
