HISTORY OF

SARATOGA COUNTY, NEW YORK.

by NATHANIEL BARTLETT SYLVESTER

1878

--------------------

HISTORY OF THE VILLAGES AND TOWNS OF SARATOGA COUNTY.

TOWN OF SARATOGA SPRINGS.

-------------------------

I. - GEOGRAPHICAL POSITION.

THE town of Saratoga Springs is very nearly in the centre of the county; it is bounded north by Greenfield and Wilton, east by Saratoga, south by Malta, and west by Milton. It is a part of the Kayadrossera patent, and contains sixteen thousand six hundred and eighteen acres. {We have been assisted in the preparation and compilation of this and several others of the town histories, by Lewis H. Clark, of Sodus, N.Y.}

We insert the following description of the town, and the definition of its boundary lines, as given in the revised statutes of the State:

"The town of Saratoga Springs shall contain all that part of said county bounded northerly by Greenfield and Wilton, westerly by Milton, southerly by Malta, and easterly by a line beginning at the northeast corner of Malta, then down the middle of Saratoga lake and Fish creek to a point two rods above Stafford's bridge, and running thence, so as to include said bridge and a piece of land four rods wide, to a point two rods below said bridge, and then due north to the south bounds of Wilton."

------------------------------

II. - NATURAL FEATURES.

The surface of the town is undulating, but scarcely sufficient to be denominated hilly. The Kayadrossera creek forms the southern boundary line; Saratoga lake is in the southeast corner. This, with its broad outlet, narrowing farther cast into Fort's creek, forms an important water front upon that border of the town. The surface is entirely drained by rivulets flowing into these streams and into the lake. Ellis creek, uniting with the Kayadrossera in the southwest, is the most important. Upon it are located the mills at Rowlandville, just over the line, in the town of Milton. This creek drains the western portion of the town from the Greenfield line. There is one other small rivulet in the southwest, which the railroad crosses in the Brown neighborhood. There are three tributaries of the Kayadrossera between Ellis creek and Lake Saratoga. The third and most important is the outlet of Lake Lonely, named on the maps Little lake. This body of water has three inlet-creeks, one rising just east of the Saratoga race-course; the other two, known as Spring run and Bog Meadow brook, rise the one northeast of the village of Saratoga Springs, the other farther east, on the line of Wilton. A small rivulet flowing across the entire eastern end of the town, and uniting with Fort's creek near Stafford's bridge, completes the drainage system of the town.

Along the Kayadrossera and the lake are found a range of low bluffs.

North from Owl pond and Saratoga lake is a large tract of low and swampy land. The soil in many parts of the town is sandy and poor. A few good tracts are found in the vicinity of the lake, and in the Kayadrossera valley are some valuable meadow lands yielding an abundant crop of hay.

The mineral springs, so widely known, are situated about three miles from the lake. They are near the centre of what is sometimes called the "mineral spring region," said to have a radius of ten miles. This subject is fully treated of elsewhere in this volume.

Lake Lonely, mentioned above, is sometimes called Owl pond, but this is not correct, according to the people living in the vicinity. The name Owl pond really belongs to a deep, nearly-hidden body of water, comprising an area of four or five acres, and situated a little west of Lake Lonely. It is scarcely accessible at some seasons of the year, being surrounded by swampy ground. In time of very high water the two ponds constitute one body of water.

In the town of Saratoga Springs are several beds of peat of most excellent quality. Edwin L. Carragan, whose residence is one and a half miles west of the village of Saratoga, has on his farm there a peat-bed of singular richness. Upon being taken from the bed and dried, it is ready for burning without any further preparation. Three miles east of the village are extensive peat-beds owned by Thomas B. Carroll, of Troy.

III. - EARLY SETTLEMENT.

To write something original of a town like Saratoga Springs, upon which so much has already been published, may be difficult. Yet it is evident that nearly all the works upon Saratoga have treated mostly of the village, and been devoted especially to tracing the development of the springs and the growth of the village around them. Writers have dwelt, too, upon the brilliant array of distinguished men: poets, historians, jurists, and statesmen who have resided here in past years. It was a work of honest local pride, a labor of love for her own gifted sons and daughters, to write the annals of Saratoga Springs.

Amos Stafford was the pioneer in the neighborhood of the bridge that bears his name. His children were: 1st, Mary, who became Mrs. Green, of Saratoga, and after the death of her husband was married to John Hicks, and settled at Waterloo, Seneca Co.; 2d, Henry, who settled in Penn Yan, Yates Co.; 3d, Samuel, who removed to Victor, Ontario Co.; 4th, Amos, who succeeded to the old homestead; 5th, Rensselaer, who settled in Saratoga adjoining his father's place; 6th, Rachel, who married Anthony Maxwell, of Old Saratoga; 7th, Phebe, who became Mrs. G.I. Lansing, of Half-Moon.

The children of Amos, Jr., were: 1st, Mary, who became Mrs. George Rouse, of Bacon Hill; 2d, Caroline, and 3d, Ann Eliza, both of whom died young; 4th, ----- who became Mrs. James Milligan, and settled in Ohio, and after the death of her husband married Samuel Bryan and removed to Wisconsin; 5th, Amos P., of Saratoga Springs; 6th, Samuel Harvey, who died at the age of twenty-one.

The old gun with which Amos Stafford, the pioneer, is said to have killed wolves enough to pay for his farm with the bounty earned is in the hands of Samuel Stafford, of Geneva, Wisconsin. He is a son of Henry.

With this pioneer family may also be appropriately mentioned the three brothers Wagman, - John, Henry, and Nicholas, - who were half-brothers of Mrs. Stafford, and who followed the Stafford family a few years later to this section. Their old homestead is still in the hands of their descendants, being the present residence of Lewis and Nicholas Wagman, in Old Saratoga.

Amos Peck, whose wife was a sister of the Wagman brothers, came nearly as early.

The Stafford neighborhood seems to be the proper place to mention the pioneer Giles Slocum, though his location was in Old Saratoga, half a mile east of Stafford's.

Benjamin French was the earliest pioneer in the southeast part of the town. He came as early as 1780. His house was built on the present farm of Thos. B. Carroll; it stood on the brow of the hill, overlooking the Kayadrossera flats. He had, it is thought, twelve hundred acres of land. Before coming to the Carroll place he lived at first in a cabin at the north end of Lonely lake, better known in old times as Owl Pond. Mr. French had a splendid section on the Kayadrossera flats devoted to meadow. It is said that he used to cut a swath two miles and a half long as a road for those to whom he sold the hay.

His sons were John, Benjamin, and Richard; John owned a large portion of the old farm and passed his life in this town; Richard removed to Williamson, Wayne Co.; and Benjamin also went west.

Stepsons of Benjamin French were Jonathan Ramsdell, William Ramsdell, and Silas Ramsdell. Silas moved to Madison county; William settled and died in this town.

Jonathan Ramsdell, about 1802, settled on what is now the Ramsdell property, at the lake, half a mile south of C.B. Moon's hotel. His house was on the site of the present house of Jefferson Ramsdell. He left two daughters, Mrs. Calvin Avery and Mrs. Benjamin Leggett; four sons, Jefferson, Morgan, Nelson, and Aaron, all of whom are living. Nelson Ramsdell, proprietor of the Holden House, Saratoga Springs, is a son of Morgan. An orchard set out on this farm in 1816 is still bearing. The trees were obtained from a nursery grown on what is known as the "drowned lands." An orchard set out by Benjamin French before 1800 has all disappeared.

In early times the settlers along the creek suffered from fever and ague. Some of them were not very permanent inhabitants. Dr. Carpenter, an early physician, used to say that he laid out one season $200 worth of medicine along the Kayadrossera, and that as soon as he had a patient ready to travel he was sure to go without paying for the quinine.

Mr. Abell was a pioneer as early, perhaps, as 1790. A brother of Mr. Abell stopped in Stillwater and purchased the farm of the White Sulphur spring. Early burials in this section were on the Judge James farm, the Ramsdell farm, the Whitford farm, and at the cemetery still in use in the Curtis neighborhood.

The place now occupied by C.B. Moon was owned for many years by James Green. He purchased it of one Upton, who was probably the pioneer, though it is understood that he only remained here a short time. In later years it was owned by George and Horace Loomis and by Mr. Ikelseimer. Two houses of entertainment were opened many years ago, one by Dr. Green and the other on the present place of Mr. Moon. Large parties gathered there in the old times. When wealthy southern visitors thronged the hotels of Saratoga before the war, two hundred and three hundred would often go out to the lake for a dinner under the shady trees, and these dinners were got up regardless of expense, - fish and game, with costly wines.

The present Lake House of C.B. Moon was opened by him in 1853, and has become widely celebrated among the many visitors whom the annual return of summer brings to Saratoga. Mr. Moon has displayed excellent taste in fitting up the grounds, and much energy in making the enterprise a decided success. The place is very attractive. The house with its neat and convenient appointments, its pleasant parlors, its spacious piazzas, the steep hill-side with its seats and summer-house, its cool shady groves, its ponds and winding walks, together make it a delightful resort. All these things are an excellent prelude to the charms of the lake itself, the sandy beach, the pure air, the fishing, rowing, or sailing. Mr. Moon has added many other attractive features. There is a bowling-alley, and the upper story of the same building affords a splendid view of the entire lake. Steam-yachts and sail- and row-boats are ready for the enjoyment of his guests.

"Moon's Island Driving Park" is also another addition made within a few years. The house is open about four months of the year, and upon its registers are the names of the most distinguished men in the United States, as well as many from foreign lands.

The house is noted for its fish and game dinners, and Moon's fried potatoes are a well-known and far-famed luxury. Nine-tenths of all the Saratoga visitors go out to the lake at Moon's. The drive is a splendid one, - over a finely-graded road of four miles.

Adjoining the grounds of Mr. Moon on the south is the country-seat or summer residence of Frank Leslie, the well-known publisher of illustrated papers. He has a large tract of the uplands devoted to a driving park and to agriculture, with farm buildings of unusual and superior architecture. His residence is on the very bank of the lake, where he has utilized the steep hill-side in every possible form for comfort, beauty, and elegance. Rustic seats, arbors, summer-houses, the water just in front, and the boat-houses, combine to render the place a picture of elegant cultured taste and refinement. The dwelling itself is a perfect little gem of a home, where many of the best writers of the land occasionally find welcome and rest.

Of the Jewell family, Calvin Avery states that the pioneers were three brothers, - Asa, William, Staats. The homestead of Asa was the present Thomas B. Carroll place. They probably came about 1800.

The children of Staats Jewell were Isaac, Benjamin, Eliza, who became Mrs. Solomon West, Anna (Mrs. Daniel Davis), Bradford, Belinda.

The children of Asa Jewell were a son, Altice, and daughters Rachel and Sarah.

The family burial-ground is mentioned in another place.

Pardon Fish was an early resident. His house was in what is now the open field north from Moon's.

James Green afterwards purchased the place.

Thomas Arnold was an early resident over the lake, in Old Saratoga, nearly opposite the Ramsdell place. He was a son-in-law of Foster Whitford the elder.

John Eddy came from Columbia, Dutchess Co. (he lived near the dividing line of the two counties}. He reached Saratoga Springs April 1, 1810, and settled on what is now the Putnam farm. The pioneer house was a little west of the corners, near some trees still standing. He had two sons, - John W. and Daniel. The section has long been known as Eddy's Corners.

Zachariah Curtis and his brother Henry moved from Stillwater into the present town of Saratoga Springs about the year 1796 or 1797. Their farms were new and unimproved, bought from the patentees and not from previous settlers, and consisted of about three hundred acres. The first house built by Zachariah stood a little west of the present house of Henry D. Curtis, and that of Henry Curtis just south of the present barn of Joshua Curtis. Zachariah Curtis had six sons, - Gideon, Joshua, Henry, Elias, William, and Chauncy. Joshua, Henry, and William settled in this town; Elias moved to Monroe county, Gideon to Chautauqua county; Chauncy lives in Schuylerville.

The Curtis family were originally from Chatham, Columbia Co. Henry Curtis died at the age of one hundred and two. His hundredth birthday was celebrated by a gathering that included more than a hundred of his descendants.

David Abel, the pioneer, came from Dutchess county about the time of the Revolutionary war, - probably 1779 or 1780. He first located on what is known as the Tyler Durham farm, southeast of the lake. He was a man ready for any kind of work necessary for a new country. A blacksmith, he shod his own horses and made his own axes; a carpenter, he built his own house and assisted his neighbors. After a few years - about 1795 or perhaps earlier - he came to this side of the lake, first living a short time on the Andrus Riley farm, and then coming to the present place of Washington Abel, his grandson. His sons were David, Peter, Jacob, Richard. David succeeded to the old homestead. The others went west. Daughters were Mrs. James Barhydt, Mrs. John Whitford, Mrs. Andrus Riley. The large trees around the homestead were set out by David 2d, father of Washington. They form a living permanent memorial of his labors.

Benjamin Avery came from Little Nine Partners, Dutchess county, about 1790, and settled about two miles from Stafford's bridge. Of his sons, James settled in Wilton, Edward in Wilton, Frederick in Saratoga, Hiram in Saratoga. Austin died young. Orlin was drowned in the lake. Calvin, the youngest, settled in Saratoga Springs. Daughters were Mrs. John Kelly, of Greenfield, Mrs. Noah Weed, of Greenfield. Calvin was the youngest of the family, married a sister of Morgan Ramsdell, and is still living. He is the last of the original family, having neither father nor mother, nor brothers or sisters living.

Foster Whitford was an early resident of Old Saratoga, and had a grist-mill known as Mud mills, on a small stream near Snake Head hill. He was there before the Revolutionary war, according to the information of his descendants. His grandson, now living, says that his father, John C. Whitford, was born in Old Saratoga, and the family Bible gives that date Sept. 7, 1770. The children of Foster Whitford were John C., who settled in Saratoga Springs, Orrison in Saratoga, Pasco in Saratoga, Earl in Indiana, and Foster in Allegheny. Daughters were Mrs. Lot Birge, Mrs. Eli Foster, and Mrs. John Ward. Lot Birge was an early schoolmaster in this section of country.

John C. Whitford, mentioned above, came to Saratoga Springs 1790 to 1795, and settled where his son, Foster, now resides. The children of John C., the pioneer on this side of the lake, were David Foster, John, Calvin, William, and one daughter, Mrs. Zachariah Curtis. Foster Whitford has heard his father speak of his neighbors when he first moved in here, as Mr. Wendover on the present Penrose farm, Mr. Swetland on the present Henry Curtis farm, the house being near the old orchard, and Mr. Brundage, in the same neighborhood.

Foster Whitford remembers Dr. Carpenter as the earliest physician. In his boyhood he used to go to meeting at the old Baptist church that stood at what is now Geyser Springs.

Daniel Rogers was connected in the business of the Mud mills with Foster Whitfield, {sic.} Sr.

Robert Ellis was a very early settler at what is now Geyserville. It is the impression of William Carragan, who has a long and accurate acquaintance with that neighborhood, that the removal of Mr. Ellis from Schuylerville to this point was about the year 1777. He came with an ox-cart, bringing his wife and two children and a little household furniture. They halted just on the brow of the bluff, near the small creek not far from the present residence of William Verbeck. A large pine-tree was cut, the top of the stump smoothed off for the first table, and the body of the cart inverted served as a shelter to sleep under until a log house could be built. In this primitive style settlement was commenced.

Robert Ellis' sons were Robert, Jr., Myron, Charles, and one other. Charles was killed accidentally. Daughters were Mrs. George Peck, Mrs. De Pitkin, Mrs. James R. Westcott, Mrs. Joseph Westcott. With Mr. Ellis came two other pioneers, Robert Welds and John Scott.

Robert Ellis built a saw-mill just below the present bridge very early. He built a grist-mill about 1818. Mr. Carragan remembers that the raising was quite a prominent affair in those times - a large gathering of people - a general "good time."

John and Jerry Cady, brothers, moved to the Ellis neighborhood about the close of the Revolutionary war, perhaps as early as 1780. One of the brothers built a house, where Mr. Leggett now lives, at what is called Cady hill; the other upon the premises that were afterwards the tavern-stand. The sons of John Cady were Thomas and Jerry. Jerry Cady, one of the pioneer brothers, went west at an early day. A large portion of the old Cady farm is now the property of George O. Chamberlain, who came to this place in 1823, and whose pleasant residence occupies the sightly elevation near the old tavern-stand.

Eleazer Carragan, though not a pioneer before 1800, was largely identified with this section of the town. He came from Dutchess county in 1811, and settled west of Cady hill, where C. Vandenburg now live. His sons were John, James, Edwin L., Hanson, William, Anthony, Sidney. Hanson and Sidney settled in New Jersey, the others in Saratoga Springs. Daughters were Mrs. Demand Vail, of Saratoga Springs, and Mrs. Charles Glover, of West Milton.

Joseph Cook was from Wallingford, Conn. That town is said to have been originally settled by two of that family name, and the population to-day is very largely Cooks.

Joseph Cook came to East Line, Ballston, in the winter of 1800-1861. He was a cabinet-maker, and his furniture was sold at Saratoga Springs and other growing villages. About 1814 or 1815 he came to what was then known as the Wallace farm. The old house where he lived is still standing near the High bridge, on the railroad, a mile and a half south of Geyser Springs. He afterwards lived a short time in Milton, and then came to Saratoga Springs.

Of his children, Ransom settled at Saratoga Springs, Marcus in Michigan, Andre at Saratoga Springs; Mary Ann became the wife of Ira Millard, Nelson became an artist of distinction, residing in Italy. He is now (June, 1878) lying dangerously ill at Rome. Truman held official positions at Washington, D.C. Henry and Joseph died young. Julia married Henry Loomis.

Robert Ayers was a soldier of the Revolution. He and six others were apprentices at Col. Dickinson's tannery in Stillwater. Without waiting for a legal termination of their indenture they enlisted in the army. After the war was over with, Robert Ayers married a Miss Ashton and bought a farm near the present High bridge, on the railroad, in the southwest part of the town. He added other lands to his original purchase, and owned finally a tract of several hundred acres, including a portion of the flats along the Kayadrossera. His sons were John, who settled in Saratoga; Isaac, who went west. Daughters were Mrs. Hicks Seaman, mother of Reuben Seaman, who now resides on the place; Mrs. Elisha Rockwell, of Milton; and Mrs. Ransom Cook, of Saratoga Springs.

In the same neighborhood Thomas Brown was an early pioneer, and Mr. Wallace also, whose place Joseph Cook bought in 1813.

------------------------------

REMINISCENCES OBTAINED OF NATHANIEL H. WATERBURY.

Mr. Waterbury was born in Saratoga Springs, June 18, 1796. His father was William Waterbury, who came from Stamford, Connecticut, to Greenfield in 1787. He settled on a part of what was afterwards known as the Elihu Wing farm, now owned by Hiram Rowland. He remained in Greenfield but a few years. He had reached this town in 1787 with only eighteen pence in his pocket and an old scythe. He was also "embarrassed," according to the modern phrase, by a debt of seven dollars and fifty cents, incurred to pay the expenses of removal from Connecticut; for this he had given his note. Believing that Saratoga Springs would become a place of importance, he removed here in 1794, buying in connection with his brother, Samuel Waterbury, one hundred acres south of Congress street; a large share of this tract is now divided into village lots. The two brothers had both been engaged in the War of the Revolution. They lived in Connecticut near the line dividing the British forces from the Americans, and were employed in valuable service as scouts. Samuel was wounded, from the effects of which he became entirely deaf. He acquired great readiness in understanding what others said from the movement of their lips.

The children of Samuel Waterbury were, first, Betsey, who married Shedrick Scofield, settled in Hadley, and afterwards went to Chautauqua; second, David, settled in Chautauqua; third, Hannah; fourth, Rhena, who married Stephen Washburne, settling in Luzerne and afterwards in Chautauqua; Phebe, who became Mrs. Dexter Barnes, and Amy, Mrs. Barnhart, both of Chautauqua.

The children of William Waterbury were, first, Sarah, who married Lewis Bradley, first settling in Saratoga, and after a few years removing to Williamson, Wayne Co.

Second, John A., who settled in Saratoga Springs, marrying Alice Scofield, of Greenfield.

Third, Rhoda, who married David Foot, of Conway, Mass.

Fourth, Asenath, who became Mrs. James Wright, remained a few years in Saratoga Springs, then removed to Pultneyville, Wayne Co., N.Y., and finally to Illinois.

Fifth, Nathaniel H., whose first wife was Cynthia Mather, and his second, Nancy Harrington. He always resided in Saratoga Springs.

Sixth, Robert, died in childhood.

Seventh, Philo R., who married Mehitable Bullard, and settled in Saratoga Springs.

Eighth, William C., unmarried, settled in Charleston, S.C., was a soldier in the Florida war, and died in Charleston in 1867.

Ninth, Josiah, and tenth, Marvel, both of whom died in childhood.

The elder Waterbury came to Greenfield in the winter, crossing the Hudson at Waterford. His mother could never be induced to visit her sons in Saratoga on account of the danger in crossing over the Hudson river on a scow. In 1787 they went to mill at Ballston. William Waterbury died in 1843. He used to say that when he came to Saratoga, the place of the present village at the springs was a good deal of a swamp, and a hard-looking place any way. He could have bought the whole village for a small sum in those times. Alexander Bryan and Samuel Norton were about the only settlers here then. Bryan lived on the bank northwest of the High Rock spring, and Norton was living a little out, within the town of Greenfield.

The Waterburys bought the one hundred acres of a non-resident. About 1805, William Waterbury bought the Denel place, a tract through which Van Dam street was afterwards laid out.

In 1794 there were few houses at Saratoga Spring. Nathaniel Waterbury remembers that his father took the children out to see a frame building raised, the first one they had ever seen. It was Union Hall, called by the people generally "Putnam's folly." It was supposed a man must be crazy to erect a three-story house for the accommodation of boarders. Mr. Waterbury supposes that one Reynolds was a very early merchant. Asa Wright had a store on the northeast side of Front street. John Taylor and Ziba Taylor were also merchants and lumber-dealers near the same place, but on the southeast side of Front street, very near the bank above the High Rock spring. They owned mills on the Loughberry creek.

Alexander Bryan's home was opposite the Taylor store, a log house. On the site is now a stone house. A black-smith-shop was nearly opposite Wright's store, where George Downing worked. He lost his life by the burning of a shanty when he was working at the burning of a coal. Jotham Holmes was an early shoemaker. He afterwards opened the Columbian Hotel, which was burned a few years since. His shoe-shop was in the then village, near the High Rock.

Mr. Waterbury recalls other early settlers, all of them before 1810, and some as far back as 1790.

Sylvester Bishop was a tavern-keeper on the bank opposite {original text has "opsite".} the Star spring. Warren Cady another tavern-keeper across the street from Bishop's. John Swain was a lime-burner. His kiln was on the bank near the Empire spring. Mr. Devan was a resident near the Empire spring, also Mr. Bevins. John Seabury a little east. Seth Saddler, a farmer, lived on the hill south of the Empire spring. William Patchin was the village fiddler. Joseph Thompson was a carpenter. Samuel Annable lived on the present place of N.B. Sylvester.

Stephen Crawford, a farmer, lived near what is known as Splinterville. This place derived its name from the number of baskets made there, Henderson Craw ford, a farmer, lived where the late Wm. Dunning resided; Robert Crawford at the Four Corners west; David Crawford also near by. These were brothers, uncles of Nathaniel Waterbury.

Caleb Ellis, a farmer, lived where Frank Prior now lives. He was a magistrate for many years. James Reed, a farmer, lived just west of Samuel Annable's. Benjamin Benedict, also a farmer, lived in the same neighborhood. Zachariah Curtis was a farmer in the south part of the town; Henry Curtis in the same neighborhood. Mr. Waterbury helped bury the latter at the age of one hundred and two.

Samuel Wickham was a blacksmith in the Curtis neighborhood. One Toms lived in the same vicinity. They were both adepts in the art of story-telling. Of these the following were supposed to be good specimens. Wickham said that ia the time of the Burgoyne campaign be was taking care of a coal-pit. Being obliged to leave, he was absent twenty-four years. Returning, he found the pit grown over with bushes and small trees the thickness of a man's arm. Taking his spade he thrust it into the ground, and found the fire still bright and the coal just nicely done. Toms was perhaps equal to the occasion. He said that being within the lines during the battle of Stillwater, he saw a wagon-load of powder driven up. A red-hot ball struck the wagon, and an explosion followed. The driver rose upward through the air, passed over the top of the tallest pines, and came down unhurt.

Robert Ellis was a farmer owning nine hundred acres, extending from the Greenfield line to the Geyser spring.

William Wait was a resident of the Curtis neighborhood, and John C. Whitford also. Richard Searing was a farmer and lumber dealer, lived on the Schuylerville road a mile east. Colonel Searing, of Saratoga Springs, is a son of Richard.

Asher Taylor and Isaac, cousins of the merchants John and Ziba, lived about a mile east of the Ten Springs. Harmon Ostrander and Abram Ostrander were early residents in the south part of the town. Dr. Cyril Carpenter was the earliest physician remembered by Mr. Waterbury. He lived on the site of the United States Hotel. Mr. Waterbury remembers Charles F. Smith as an early lawyer, and a little later than him Aaron Blake. Archibald Crawford was a farmer in the southeast part of the town. His sons were Daniel, Wallace, and John. John Bemus lived on the present farm of Hamilton A. Rodney. He was a brick-maker.

William Shaft was an early settler at Saratoga Springs. Elias Benedict, of the town of Milton, owned a farm a little west of Saratoga Springs, and was the founder of the first hotel, on the site of the United States. Solomon Manezer was a farmer a little west of the Geyser spring. Jeremiah Cady lived near him. Benjamin Risley was a farmer, and also proprietor of a boarding-house very early, on Van Dam street. Squire Jones was an early settler in the Crawford neighborhood.

Timothy Soper and Burtis Soper, near the Eddy Four Corners. George Peck was a scythe-maker; did a successful business. His shop was near the Geyser spring. He was the father of Mrs. Rockwell Putnam.

Mr. Waterbury emphasizes the swamps of Saratoga Springs by saying that he had often helped get cattle out of the mud in the valley above and below Congress Park.

Ezekiel Bradley lived on the place where Nelson Slade now lives. Howard Bradley and Lewis Bradley lived beyond, on the west side of the creek. They all moved west at an early day, and settled in Wayne county.

Gilbert Waring's place was the farm now laid out for the new cemetery. He was a large farmer, and one of our most successful lumbermen. At one time he was a member of Assembly from this county.

Gardner Bullard came from Vermont in 1812. He supposes himself to have come to Saratoga Springs earlier than other citizens now living who moved in as he did, from a distance. Other citizens living in Saratoga Spring longer than he are natives of the town.

Of Mr. Bullard we obtain a few notes concerning the first town officers elected in 1820.

Ashbel Andrews lived at the Springs, corner of Broadway and Washington streets. Harman J. Betts, the first town clerk, kept a store opposite the old Columbian Hotel. He was noted as a singer.

John Bemus, the first collector, lived about two and a half miles south of Saratoga Springs, on the present place of Hamilton Roblee.

Joseph White lived near the upper Rock spring, he was a mason by trade.

Joel Clements, the second town clerk, lived at the Springs.

George Peck lived south, about ten miles, on the present Deuel farm.

James R. Westcott, town clerk and supervisor for eleven years, was a merchant at the Springs. Joshua Bliven, an early collector, was a butcher. John H. Still, supervisor in 1828, was a physician at the Springs. He was an army surgeon in the War of 1812.

Eli Holbrook lived in the village.

Washington Putnam and his brother, Rockwell Putnam, kept the old Union Hotel

William A. Langworthy, first justice elected by the people, was a hardware merchant in the village.

Ransom Cook, still living, is the inventor of the screw auger.

------------------------------

IV. - ORGANIZATION.

The first town-meeting was held at Union Hall, on the 7th day of March, 1820. This was on the site of the present Grand Union Hotel. The following officers were elected: Ashbel Andrews, supervisor; Harman J. Betts, town clerk; Walter Crawford, Richard Searing, Nathan Lewis, assessors; Daniel Crawford, Samuel Stafford, Samuel S. Wakeman, commissioners of highways; John Eddy, Gilbert Waring, overseers of the poor; John Bemus, collector; John Glean, George Peck, Rockwell Putnam, commissioners of common schools; Rev. Francis Wayland, Rev. James O. Griswold, William L.F. Warren, inspectors of common schools; Solomon Spaulding, Joseph White, Frederick Avery, constables; Richard Searing, poundmaster; George Peck, John Bryan, Richard Searing, inspectors of weights and measures. The town was divided into fifteen road districts; voted $125 for roads and bridges; $620 for the poor. Partition and circular fences were ordered to be at least "four feet and a half high, tight and strong."

At the town-meeting of 1823, two fines, imposed for selling liquors contrary to law during the year, were remitted by vote of the people.

The following curiously-worded resolution was adopted:

Resolved, That the poor of the town be advertised within six days after they shall become chargeable from time to time, and sold to the lowest bidder.

Union Hall, the place of the first town-meeting, was a hotel kept for boarders. It has been renewed step by step, and changed, until it is the present Grand Union Hotel of Stewart's estate.

The house of Smith Wheeler, where the town-meeting of 1823 met, was on the site of the present S. & W. Ainsworth buildings, and town-meetings were held at the same place for many years. In 1829 the town-meeting was held at the house of James R. Milligan, on the site of the present Bicknell and Farrington block.

V. - VILLAGES, HAMLETS, NEIGHBORHOODS.

The village of Saratoga Springs is situated upon the northern border of the town, its corporate limits extending to Greenfield and Wilton. The village is very generally supposed to be the SARATOGA of History, and many strangers no doubt come here supposing that they are visiting the place so famous in the wars of olden times, or at least the battle-fields of the Burgoyne campaign. The engaging of livery to visit those points soon dispels the illusion.

The importance of Saratoga Springs renders it necessary to devote to its history a separate chapter, and to that the reader is referred.

------------------------------

STAFFORD BRIDGE is quite noted as a place of early settlement, and as a central point near which town-meetings were frequently held when Saratoga and Saratoga Springs constituted one town. The bridge and the neighborhood derive their name from the pioneer, who, escaping from the Wyoming massacre of 1778, not long after made his home on the outlet of Saratoga lake. The homestead is now the residence of the family of the late Phineas Smith, and stands on a pleasant elevation north of the bridge. The house, remodeled and painted, is now about eighty-four years old. In this same neighborhood, a little farther east in Old Saratoga, was the residence of the other noted early pioneer, Giles Slocum. This is now the place of Mr. Lockro, and the house stands farther up the hill than in the olden times. Both Stafford's and Slocum's were taverns, and the town-meetings of Old Saratoga, when it comprised a large extent of territory, were held at these then well-known places. The road through here is no longer a great public route as in the early days, and the neighborhood is quiet and secluded.

------------------------------

The Steamboat Landing, better known in late years as "Moon's," has become an important annex of Saratoga Springs. They are connected by a broad and beautiful avenue. The springs are at one end, the lake at the other, and the driving park in the route between. It is not too much to say that there are few thoroughfares in the world along which more of fashion, wealth, and luxury roll than along the avenue from Congress Hall to Moon's. In old times there were two ferries, one at the present place of Moon, the other opposite the Schuyler House, farther south. As early as 1800 one Shook ran the south ferry; at the same time, or perhaps earlier, the other ferry was managed by Upton. An attempt to destroy Shook's boat had a ludicrous ending. The parties trying it filled the boat partially with sand, took it out into the lake, and sunk the craft. But, loaded unequally, it went down in such a manner that most of the sand slipped out, and in the morning the boat was discovered sticking up endways out of the water, a condition from which it was easily rescued. The early ferries were by scows rowed with large heavy oars. The first rope-ferry was as late as 1835.

A little south of Moon's, on the Ramsdell farm, the Kayadrossera flows into the lake. Its real entrance was a very crooked stream. In early years the lumbermen engaged in rafting timber cut across a small point, and made a much better channel to the lake. The lumber business was an important one here in early times, timber being floated down the Kayadrossera, and even down some streams that seem now unimportant rivulets.

The first bridge up the Kayadrossera was known as the Old Red bridge. The original French farm, elsewhere mentioned, extended from the lake up to that.

During the noted boat regatta, a few years ago, the artists of Harper's Weekly had their lookout on a beautiful projecting point on the Ramsdell farm.

------------------------------

EDDY'S CORNERS derives its name from the pioneer of the Eddy family, who settled at this place more than sixty years ago. Several families of the name reside in the vicinity at the present time.

------------------------------

ASHLEY'S CORNERS is directly south from the depot at Saratoga Springs, and is on the old stage-route from Albany, a route that was almost a straight line from Round Lake via Dunning Street, Malta Ridge, and Ashley's Corners.

------------------------------

ELLIS CORNERS, so named on county maps, is better known as "Geyser Springs." The value of these mineral waters is steadily developing business interests at this point, and it is just far enough from the village of Saratoga Springs for a fine drive, or even a pleasant walk.

------------------------------

CADY'S HILL is a slight elevation west of the Geyser springs, where the main road divides into two branches, leading northeast and southwest. Ellis Corners and Cady's Hill now constitute Geyserville.

The little creek at Geyserville has been made to do considerable service since settlement began at this point.

George Peck had scythe-works there as early as 1800, on the west side of the creek. The same buildings were afterwards used for a bolt and nut factory, with another building, a little farther down the stream. One of the buildings is now the bottling-house of the Geyser spring.

There was also a pottery here. These, with the grist- and saw-mills, gave to the place a considerable business importance in former times.

The hotels on the hill west were the place for holding elections in old times, and also were the {original text has "the the".} the resort of many pleasure-parties.

------------------------------

VI. - SCHOOLS.

The school districts of the new town of Saratoga Springs were arranged by the commissioners in 1820 and 1821.

Of the early schools we have but little account.

The first school-house at the lake stood where its successor does, near the present farm establishment of Frank Leslie. The lot was given by Mr. Abell. He was a pioneer as early perhaps as 1790, and interested in educational matters.

Outside the village of Saratoga Springs the schools are generally small. District No. 5 has, however, one hundred and thirty-five children between the ages of five and twenty-one, and the public money apportioned for attendance shows a good average.

There are only six districts beyond the corporate limits of the village.

The commissioners of common schools who served one or more years each, from 1820 to 1843, inclusive, are as follows:

John Glen, George Peck, Rockwell Putnam, Henry Walton, John Eddy, Benjamin Marvin, Jr., G.M. Davidson, David Scidmore, John H. Steel, Thomas Brown, John A. Waterbury, Derick L. Palmer, Zachariah Curtis, Washington Putnam, Wallace Crawford, Hiram Avery, Palmer Williams, W.L.F. Warren, Daniel Douglass, Warren A. Smith, Nathaniel H. Waterbury, John B. Gilbert, Joseph Waring, Asa B. Jewell, Daniel T. Reed, Jonathan B. French, Amos Stafford, Lewis P. Close, Jesse Morgan, Ezra Hall, Henry P. Hyde, Horace Fonda, Isaac K. Finch, Horatio N. Finch, Beekman Huling, Shelemiah R. Ostrander, Jonathan Hall, Russell C. Carpenter, John Rouse, Sidney J. Cowen, Joshua Curtis, Abel A. Kellogg, Richard L. Allen.

The inspectors of common schools who served during the same period one or more years each were the following:

Rev. Francis Wayland, Rev. Darius O. Griswold, William L.F. Warren. John H. Steel, Harvey F. Leavitt, John D. Mann, Gideon M. Davidson, D.L. Palmer, Wm. A. Langworthy, James R. Westcott, E.H. Porter, Judiah Ellsworth, C.B. Brown, Miles Taylor, George W. Fish, Thomas J. Marvin, John A. Corey, Wm. A. Beach, Leister Wilcox, S.H. Ostrander, George M. Bailey, Richard L. Allen, Mervin G. Putnam, Thomas Rogers, Alanson Smith, Asher S. Taylor, John C. Hulbert, Randall D. Huling, Carey B. Moon, E. Darwin Carpenter, John B. Felshaw, Isaac Hall, Charles A. Cook.

Under the system of supervision by town superintendents from 1844 to 1856 the following were elected:

 

1844. - A. B. Olmsted.

1850. - Lewis Curtis.

1845. - Charles Kendall.

1852. - Anthony W. Carragan.

1846. - Charles Kendall.

1854. - Anthony W. Carragan.

1847. - Henry H. Douglass.

1856. - Andrew M. Franklin.

1848. - John L. Perry.

 

 

With the abolition of this office in 1856 all supervision of the schools by town authority ceased.

The annexed apportionment by the school commissioners for the current year, 1878, shows the present condition of the schools:

------------------------------

VII. - BURIAL-GROUNDS.

There was an old burial-place, now a locust grove, just before reaching the Geyser spring from the village. The remains were removed some years ago, and all the stones that had any inscriptions. It is probable that there are, however, some unknown graves in this shady grove, and that of their occupants there is now no record or trace.

The Cady Burial-Ground is west from Cady hill. The inclosure is now a neglected spot; the palings of the fence fallen; briers and wild shrubs intruding where the roses, planted long years ago by loving hands, are still casting their annual wealth of flowers upon the graves of the departed.

Among the inscriptions are the following:

"Peter Baker, died Feb. 12, 1806, aged twenty-six."

"Three children of Warren Cady: Minerva, died Feb. 8, 1808, aged four years; Harmon, died Feb. 9, 1808, aged one year; Jeremiah, died March 18, 1803, aged thirteen. Still earlier, Arvilla, in the same family, died July 13, 1803."

"Daniel Dennis, died June 11, 1806, aged forty-five."

"Thomas Cady, died Nov. 14, 1826, aged forty-six." On this stone is the tribute, 'Long neglected but not forgotten. Erected by John P. Cady, New Orleans.' "

Farther west from Cady hill is the private Munger family cemetery. It contains only two inscriptions.

Some other places of single graves may perhaps exist in town, but this sketch is believed to include all the well-known public and private cemeteries away from the village of Saratoga Springs.

The Whitford burial-ground is the main one in the town away from the village of Saratoga Springs. A few years since, like most of the earlier burial-places, it was neglected and desolate. But the people rallied, formed an incorporation under the statute, enlarged and improved the grounds, until now they are a credit to the rural neighborhood. The older portion has been neatly laid out, - even the graves with the old common stone of the last century lovingly cared for with the others. Among the earlier inscriptions are the following:

"Silas Davis, died June 11, 1811, aged fifty-two."

"Elizabeth, daughter of Silas Davis, March 25, 1810, ten years."

"Daniel Ostrander, died July 6, 1812, aged seventeen."

"Thomas Ostrander, died Jan. 31, 1812, aged forty-seven."

"Phebe, daughter of Thomas Ostrander, died Feb. 8, 1861, aged six."

"Sarah, wife of Thomas Ostrander, died Jan. 1, 1844, aged seventy-eight."

"Daniel, infant, son of Henry Curtis, died Jan. 15, 1808."

"Archibald Crawford, died June 8, 1806, aged seventy-three."

"Mary, his wife, March 2, 1813, aged seventy-three."

"Parthena, wife of John Crawford, died April 21, 1807."

Soldiers buried here, and their graves marked (June, 1878) with flags, are: Henry A. Austin, One Hundred and Twenty-eighth Regiment, Company K, died Oct. 9, 1863; Philip J. Austin, died Dec. 17, 1862.

The Jewell burying-place is on the present farm of Thomas B. Carroll, a little north of Moon's. It was originally an acre reserved by Pardon Fish, an early resident, at the foot of the little hill where the grave-stones are now seen. The burial-place, somewhat neglected, has, however, a pleasant location, overlooking to the south the long winding outline of Saratoga lake. Some of the inscriptions here are:

"Samantha, an infant child of Jeremiah Coon, died April 25, 1818."

"Twin daughters of Isaac Hoag, died, the one April 18, the other April 21, eight years old."

"Dorcas, wife of Statos Jewell, June 22, 1821, aged forty-four."

"Temperance, wife of John French, May 16, 1819, aged twenty-seven."

"Levi Lamphier, Dec. 10, 1818, aged seventy."

"Cornelia, wife of Samuel Knight, Nov. 29, 1839, aged sixty-seven."

The historian may here suppose that he has suddenly discovered the earliest death in Saratoga County, as one inscription gravely reads, "Bradford Jewell, died April 24, 1667." The stone-cutter who was to carve 1867, and made the error of two hundred years, and yet failed to correct it, has not left his own name on the marble.

The Abel burial-ground is on a beautiful elevation between the family mansion and the lake. Here sleep the pioneer and his wife, amid the scenes of their lifelong toil, and beside the lake where they chose their early forest-home. The place is neatly kept, with seats arranged for visitors. The tall pines waving above it, and the fresh, bright, and cheerful waters, speak of life, and hope, and trust. The inscriptions are:

"David Abel, died Sept. 9, 1825, aged eighty."

"Eve, wife of David Abel, died March 27, 1829, aged eighty-seven."

"Dennis White Abel, died Nov. 15, 1829, aged five."

"Cordelia, wife of Seymour Gilbert, died Dec. 22, 1849."

"Hannah, wife of David Abel, aged seventy-three."

"David Abel, died Jan. 7, 1868, aged seventy-five."

The Ramsdell family burial-place is an inclosure well cared for, and thoroughly protected from intrusion. The inscriptions are:

"Mary R., wife of Jonathan Ramsdell, died Sept. 7, 1849, aged sixty-six."

"Jonathan Ramsdell, died Dec. 15, 1851, aged sixty-nine."

"Mary E., daughter of Charles F. Wood, died Oct. 28, 1847, aged two."

"Alexander, son of Morgan, died Sept. 6, 1849, aged eighteen."

"Jennie K., daughter of Henry Rogers, died Feb. 5, 1861, aged two."

The Stafford burial-ground, though just beyond the line of the town, may be appropriately mentioned here. It is on high ground not far from the Stafford homestead, overlooking for some distance the valley of Fish creek, as well as the higher lands east. From this now quiet and cultivated hill-side not only the home and the farm of the noted pioneer are within view, but also a wide extent of country, over the hills and through the valleys of which the early hunter so successfully pursued the fierce game of the forest. The inscriptions in the cemetery are:

"Amos Stafford, died March 27, 1813, aged fifty-seven."

"Sarah, wife of Amos Stafford, died May 14, 1847, aged eighty-five."

"Samuel Harvey, son of Amos and Eliza Stafford, died July 24, 1835, aged twenty-one."

"Christian, daughter of Alexander McIntosh, died Dec. 17, 1845, aged sixteen."

"Sally, daughter of Henry Stafford, died July 4, 1811, aged four years."

"Caroline, daughter of Amos and Eliza Stafford, died Sept. 13, 1829, aged four."

"Amos Stafford, died Oct. 12, 1850, aged sixty-one."

"Anna Eliza, daughter of Amos and Eliza, died Sept. 23, 1845, aged eighteen."

"James, son of Henry Stafford, died April 29, 1834, aged three."

There are also several other graves, some marked by common field stone, showing very early burial.

There is another burial-place a little farther east (of course in Old Saratoga), which it seems appropriate to mention at this point, and that is the one on the hill, above the old Giles Slocum place. This neighborhood, both sides of the town-line, is noted historic ground, not for battles, but for early settlement, and incidents occurring in this vicinity have been woven into the stories of many writers. In the little neglected burial-place above mentioned is one very old inscription:

"Deborah, wife of John Sebury, died April 25, 1779, aged 33."

Another inscription is, -

"Abigail, wife of Samuel Lawrence, died Sept. 21, 1828."

Close beside this spot is the Thorn family burial-place, neatly fenced and well cared for.

------------------------------

VIII. - INDUSTRIAL PURSUITS.

The business interests of the whole town are intimately connected with those of the village.

The soil is not favorable to successful agriculture in very large portions of the town, yet whatever crops are raised find a ready market. A village of ten thousand inhabitants, with its immense number of visitors during several months of the year, finds employment for very many who live beyond its corporate limits. Large numbers of the people of the town are directly interested in the various business enterprises connected with the bottling and shipment of the mineral waters; others in raising produce for, or in catering to the wants of the village, and the comfort and luxury of the annual guests.

A successful "season" to the village and the hotels means a call for labor, for provisions, for teams, and secures to quite an extent remunerative employment to all the people of the town. The outlying portions of the town are but the suburbs of the village, and when the village is prosperous the suburbs are.

The statistical tables given in the general history show very clearly the productions of the town for the period named.

------------------------------

IX. - MILITARY.

During the War of the Revolution that portion of Saratoga now constituting the town of Saratoga Springs can scarcely be said to have been settled at all, and there are little or no reminiscences of Revolutionary interest to be given, except such as occur in the items relating to early settlement. It is said that one of the early log houses at the High Rock was of square timbers, built as a block-house, and pierced for the use of guns in defense, if it should be necessary.

The War of 1812 excited special public interest here, as it did in all this section, exposed as it was to a repetition of the Burgoyne campaign that had occurred thirty-five years before. Col. Searing states that Mr. Ham was a drummer in the service at that time. Mr. Danforth was also in the army of 1812. Doubtless there were many others, but it is exceedingly difficult to make a list that would be either complete or reliable.

During the Mexican war a volunteer company was recruited here by Col. Plunkett, and its ranks were promptly filled. Its services were tendered to the government, but it was never called into the field.

At the present time there is one citizen in the regular army, - Edgar Ham.

The war of 1861-65 produced great military activity at Saratoga Springs. The action by the town was prompt and patriotic. A detailed account of the regiments formed will be found in the general history. The following list has been prepared from the roll in the office of the town clerk, from the printed muster-in rolls, and from the muster-out rolls of the Seventy-seventh Regiment, in possession of Colonel French.

We preface it with the official action taken by the town as found in the records.

A meeting of the town board was held Friday, Oct. 16, 1863, to consider measures for the relief of families of volunteers. Regulations were adopted with reference to granting such relief. Present: J.W. Crane, supervisor; F. Height,, town clerk; William C. Barrett, Joseph D. Briggs, Esek Cowen, and Jerome B. Buckbee, justices of the peace.

Another meeting for the same purpose is recorded under date of Dec. 16, 1863.

At a special town-meeting, held March 24, 1864, resolutions were adopted providing for the payment of a town bounty of $300 to each volunteer credited to the town. The supervisors were authorized to borrow a sum not exceeding $20,000 for that purpose, payable in four equal installments of $5000 each. The town board were authorized to borrow $1000 to continue the granting of relief to families of volunteers. Under these resolutions the town board, March 28, 1864, directed the borrowing of $10,000, and issued therefor ten bonds of $1000 each.

May 14, 1864, the board directed the supervisor to borrow $10,000 more for the same purpose.

The payment of bounty and expenses was extended to any person who should procure a substitute certified to by the provost-marshal of the district.

At a special town-meeting, Aug. 15, 1864, the further sum of $50,000 was voted for the payment of bounties by the town board; and the amount of bounty voted to be paid was $500 to each recruit for three years, $350 for two years, and $200 for one year.

At a special town-meeting, Sept. 7, 1864, a bounty of $1000 for each volunteer was authorized, if they could not be obtained for less, and this was also extended to any citizen who should procure a substitute; $130,000 was voted for this purpose.
