Inhabited by Native Americans as late as 820 A.D., the region was eventually settled by Dutch settlers from Albany in 1691, who called the region Fort Saratoga. These settlers included the influential Schuyler family. Conflicts occurred in the midst of the French, Mohawk, Mohican, Dutch, and English peoples. The goodwill of 1763 between France and England resulted in this Place being nearby for settlement. Homes and mills were built by European Americans, including General Phillip Schuyler’s flax mill in 1767 (the first of its kind in the American colonies).
