CHAPTER XIX.
THE TOWN OF GAINES.
Gaines and Albion are the only interior towns in Orleans county. By an act of the Legislature the town of Gaines was erected from Ridgeway on the 14th of February, 1816, and comprised within its limits the present towns of Gaines, Albion, and Barre, and a large part of Carlton. Barre-including Albion-was set off in 1818 and a portion of Carlton in 1822, leaving this town with its present area of 21, 138 acres. Upon the original organization of Gaines William J. Babbitt, who was promi- nently identified in creating the new town, suggested the name in honor of Gen. E. P. Gaines, who, in the war of 1812, distinguished himself by holding Fort Erie nine days against siege of General Drummond's British troops. The town is bounded on the east by Kendall and Murray, on the south by Albion, on the west by Ridgeway, and on the north by Carlton. The surface is comparatively level. Excellent drainage is afforded by Otter Creek, which flows north through the west part of the town; by the two branches of Marsh Creek, both of which flow northwardly, one near Fairhaven, the other near East Gaines ; and by the west branch of Sandy Creek, which flows easterly through the southeast corner of the town. In the extreme northwest corner is Oak Orchard Creek, of which Otter and Marsh Creeks are tributaries. The soil is a sandy loam, well adapted to farming pur- poses. Indeed, this is one of the richest agricuural towns in the county. Fruit, grain, hay, garden stuff, potatoes, beans, etc., are produced in large quantities and extensively shipped to distant markets.
The first town meeting was held at Booth's tavern, at what was then Gaines Corners, now Gaines Village, on the 2d of April, 1816. At that meeting the following officers were elected : Samuel Clark, super- visor ; Daniel Pratt, town clerk; Eilas Joy, John Proctor, Oliver Ben- ton, assessors ; Nathan Whitney, John Proctor, overseers of the poor ;
