Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: South Worcester is a small, quiet hamlet on the banks of the Charlotte River, a tributary of the Susquehanna River in central New York State's Town of Worcester, Otsego County. Today, the serene and modest character of the community belies its importance in the early American experience.It is the oldest and most historic part of the Town, and some will say its most interesting. The Mohawks called it the Adaquitangie. During the colonial period, Sir William Johnson, its Anglo-Irish nobleman landowner, named it the Charlotte Country in honor of the Queen of England. It became one of the earliest settlements on the American frontier when the former Palatine soldier Christopher Servos and his family appeared there, perhaps by 1740, establishing homes, farms, a trading post, mill and potashery-far predating most of the neighboring communities.During the Revolution skirmishes occurred there featuring attacks on Patriot settlers by bands of Tories and Native Americans. Military expeditions and encampments by mixed regiments of Redcoats, German mercenaries, Iroquois braves and Loyalists were led in part by the Mohawk War Chief Joseph Brant. These events came to a head in 1778 when raiders under the orders of George Washington shot and killed Servos' son, the Tory leader of the settlement, in his own home.Repopulation after the war, led by families named Becker, Multer, Strain, Mitchell, Dorwin and others, brought new houses, farms, stores, churches, schools, a hotel, blacksmith shop, bank, post office, law school, and a 60-room mansion in the 19th century. South Worcester is now a National Historic DistrictIt is fortunate that the area had two amateur local historians, Howson A. Hartley and Lela M. Gibbs, who left behind a legacy of accounts based on research, interviews, oral histories and personal reflections. These accounts are remarkable for their rich historical and personal flavor and are presented here for their value to posterity.
