ORLEANS COUNTY.


The town is bounded on the north by Gaines, on the east by Murray and a small portion by Clarendon, on the south by Barre, and on the west and a small portion on the north by Ridgeway, a small portion is also bounded west by Shelby. It has an area of 16,337 acres, and is traversed from east to west by the Niagara Falls branch of the New York Central & Hudson River Railroad. The Erie Canal also traverses the northern part of the town except for about two and one- half miles immediately west of Albion village, which is in Gaines. Flowing northerly through the west part of the township is Otter Creek, while through the center flows Sandy Creek, which courses through the eastern edge of the village. These are the only streams of importance in the town. Grain and fruit are the chief agricultural productions, and the soil is a clay loam. The surface is generally level and the soil is very productive. About two miles east from Albion village are a num- ber of sandy hills, which have been utilized for the tasteful cemetery of Mount Albion. The town is especially noted for its extensive quarries of Medina sandstone, a stratum that underlies nearly its whole area.


During several years the question of holding the town elections in Albion instead of Barre Center, (which was near the geographical center of the town of Barre) had been periodically agitated. This change was favored by the political party that was strongest in Albion, and was opposed by the party that was dominant in the town ; and a majority could not be induced to vote for the change. In 1875 a majority of the Board of Supervisors were of the same political party as a majority in the village, and a proposition was made to divide the town. After a bitter contest this was carried and the new town was erected from the north part of Barre. The line established between the two towns divided the northern tier of lots in the first and second ranges of the fourteenth township, leaving about one-third of each of these lots in the town of Barre. This location of the line was determined by party con- siderations. The meeting at which the supervisors voted to divide the old town of Barre, was held January 3, 1875. The first board of town officers, elected April 8 of that year, consisted of Norman S. Field, supervisor ; Jay H. Sweet, town clerk; George A. Porter, Andrew L. Dibble, Arnold Gregory, and Leroy R. Sanford, justices of the peace ; George Edmonds, collector ; Hiram Reed, assessor; William A. Tanner, high-

Originally the lands in the town were largely apportioned to settlers or purchasers by articles, which were negotiable, and in many instances these instruments were assigned several times before the purchase price was paid and deeds secured. They were not recorded, and therefore the records in the county clerk's office give no reliable information as to the first settlers. From original entries in the books of the Holland Land Company, however, the following account of sales by articles and deeds is gleaned, It must be remembered that the town includes the south three-fourths of the north tier of lots in the first and second ranges of the fourteenth township, and the north three tiers of lots in the same ranges of the fifteenth township, except lots 57, 58 and 59 in the fifteenth township and second range, which lie in Ridgeway :
