Book excerpt: When Cortland was incorporated as a village in 1853, its population was mainly transplanted New Englanders and Irish immigrants, and it encompassed territory 1 mile from east to west. By 1871, two rail lines crossed the village, and their cargos of coal encouraged the development of industries, particularly carriages and sleighs. The 1890s brought Cortlands first urban renewal with industrialists replacing wooden mansions with ones of brick, stone, and Queen Anne designs. The 20th century opened with full employment in industries that not only served the country but also the world. This encouraged Italians, Ukrainians, and Lebanese to settle in Cortland and share their heritage. Photographs from the archives of the Cortland County Historical Society illustrate how life was lived in Cortland before the 21st century.

Book excerpt: Cortland CountyA[a¬A's breathtaking vistas resulted from glaciers, which carved its valleys, shaped its hills, and watered the region through rivers, lakes, and creeks. It was virgin territory until just after the Revolutionary War, when New York State designated thousands of acres to be compensation for enlistees in two post-war regiments. By 1808, the population approached 8,000, and people began to petition the state legislature to create a county separate from Onondaga. They named Cortland County after the stateA[a¬A's first lieutenant governor. As you delve into Cortland County, the prolific and diverse photographic collection will take you on a journey into the past, illustrating the nuances of life, both work and play, that have been at the core of Cortland CountyA[a¬A's history and prosperity. Learn how these vibrant communities evolved into what they are today through the devotion of the historians at Cortland County Historical Society.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the winter of 1804-1805, Edward Scofield and a small group entered the township in search of a creek suitable for a mill and good land for settlement. Within a few years, Walnut Run, a tributary of Mosquito Creek, was providing waterpower to a gristmill and a sawmill, and other settlers began to arrive. The area around the mill was called by various names: first, Leroy, as named by Scofield, or East Bazetta, referring to its location east of Mosquito Creek that divided the township nearly in half; then Baconsburgh because of the many settlers from the Bacon family; and finally Cortland following incorporation. Over the years, the area around Walnut Run flourished, churches were built, businesses and industries were established, and a lake was built during World War II. Then, as now, people worked very hard to make Bazetta Township and its only city a great place in which to live. ?Wh
