TOWN OF MILTON

The Town of Milton, along with much of Saratoga County, was a part of the Kayaderosseras Patent, granted by the English in 1708 to Samson S. Broughton, Attorney General of NY and 12 associates. Earlier, all of these lands had been a part of Albany County, established in the mid-1600's and extending all the way to the Canadian border. It was in the 1770's that the area of Albany County was divided into Districts of Saratoga, Halfmoon and Balls Town. These areas, plus Stillwater, became Towns of Albany County in 1788. Finally, in 1791, Saratoga County was created by the NYS Legislature by setting off the Towns of Saratoga, Halfmoon, Ballston and Stillwater from Albany County. Then, in 1792 the Towns of Milton, Charlton and Galway were established from portions of Ballston. The Town of Milton was established by Act of the NYS Legislature on March 7, 1792. By 1828 other division of lands within Saratoga County resulted in the towns as they exist today... We are also home to many outdoor..
