THE TOWN OF MASONVILLE
[Electronic text by Sharon Wilson, CA]
On the formation of Delaware county in 1797, Masonville was a part of Franklin, which had been taken from Harpersfield in 1792. It remained a part of Franklin till 1801, when Sidney, including Masonville, was set off from Franklin. The territory remained a part of Sidney till 1811, when it was organized into a town and named Masonville, from the Rev. John M. Mason, who, in right of his wife, Ann, a descendant of General John Bradstreet, was owner of the greater part of the Evan's patent, which is in that town.
The State road from Cherry Valley to Jericho (now Bainbridge and Afton) was opened in 1797, when settlers come and located along the road. Among the earlier settlers were: Adin and William Wait, Daniel Scranton, Enos Goodman, Justin Nash, Peres Moody and son Moses, Asa Terry, Caleb Monson, Darius Smith, Timothy Eastman, Bernice Hazor, Silvester and Ebenezer Smith, Dr. Pliny Smith and Eli St. John. The Smiths and several of the others were from Massachusetts.
F. W. SMITH, tanner, was born in this town January 30th,1831, and was married to Ledy A. Wells, February 22nd, 1855: they have five children. His father, Hazor Smith, was born in Massachusetts and came with his father, Darius, and settled in 1801 on the land where the village of Masonville now stands. The land now occupied has always been held by the Smith family. Mr. F. W. Smith has been justice of the peace six years.
