    • TOWN OF HARPERSFIELD

      Harpersfield is located along the northern edge of the county, bordering both Otsego and Schoharie counties. According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of 42.3 square miles and a 2010 Census population of 1,577 people.

       

      History

       

      The history of Harpersfield starts in 1769 with the sale of 250,000 acres completed at the home of Sir William Johnson, and a patent recognizing the political reality of all land within “the Province of New York situate, lying and being in the county of Albany, between the Cookquago branch of Dela­ware river and the branch of the Susquehanna river called Adiquitange.” Subsequently, these hills and valleys were the backdrop for the settlement of the frontier, the American Revolution, and war with Joseph Brant. The 19th century brought town and county reorganizations and the simultaneous development of churches, education, and social and commercial organizations, while the 20th century saw advances in medicine, business, and the railroad that almost came.
