DESCRIPTION Pultneyville NY was established in 1806. However, Europeans have traveled through this area for well over one hundred years previously. In 1687, the Governor of New France landed 1,600 soldiers of the Companie Franches de la Marine where Pultneyville now stands. From there, they marched south to attack and destroy Iroquois villages and crops. In 1814, Pultneyville was back on the front lines again as a British force landed there and seized provisions for their ships. In the decades that followed, Pultneyville NY, despite its small size, became an important shipping port and local men served on cargo and whaling vessels that traveled the world. When the railroad came in south of Pultneyville, the economic boom was over and the village slipped into a long, quiet slumber. Today, it is well-known for its theatre life and as a recreational harbor. |
