1892 History of Fulton County, New York, revised and edited by Washington Frothingham, published by D. Mason & Co., Syracuse. A substantial and detailed county history covering early exploration, Native American presence (Iroquois Confederacy), colonial conflicts, the French & Indian War, and the American Revolution, with strong emphasis on the Mohawk Valley. Includes extensive local records, town histories (Johnstown, Gloversville, Broadalbin, Mayfield, etc.), and a large biographical section of prominent citizens.


Notable for its in-depth treatment of Sir William Johnson and the development of the region’s glove industry—an important economic driver in Fulton County. These late 19th-century county histories are highly sought after for genealogical research, containing names, family sketches, and early settlement details often unavailable elsewhere.
