Lorenzo was the country estate of the Holland Land Company Agent John Lincklaen who founded Cazenovia in 1793. The estate stayed in the family until 1968 when NY State purchased it. This grand Norway spruce was planted by Ledyard Lincklaen around 1845 to commemorate the birth of his daughter Helen.
