Buffalo's History
|
|
The Village of Buffalo was originally surveyed and laid out for the Holland
Land Company in 1804 by Joseph Ellicott. The Holland Land Company had
purchased Western New York bounding on the Genessee River to the east,
Lake Ontario to the North, the Niagara River and Lake Erie to the west
and Pennsylvania to the south. The village grew relatively slowly until
the war of 1812 when Buffalo became a "Military Resort." In
1821 Erie County was carved out of Niagara County and Buffalo became the
county seat. Buffalo had officially been a part of Niagara County since
1808. The Village of Buffalo was incorporated in 1822. Its government
was administered by a President and board of trustees. Because of the
navigable Great Lake Erie and "Clinton's Ditch" Buffalo became
the largest grain handling port in the world. Buffalo truly was the gateway
to the west. April 20th, 1832 Governor Enos T. Throop approved the charter
of the City of Buffalo.
