Grenadier Island is a island located out from Mud Bay in the town of Cape Vincent, Jefferson County, New York, USA. The island is long and wide. ==History== Grenadier Island's first official settlement was by John Mitchel in the early 19th century, followed by the Bedford family. At least 14 families had settled upon the island prior to the official grant of a land patent in 1824, and these prior inhabitants were reluctant to give up their holdings as the island's land began to be sold by the new owners. Early industry on the island consisted primarily of fishing, in addition to lumbering and farming.〔 It was visited by General James Wilkinson and his troops after retreating from the St. Lawrence River in 1812, when he landed his fleet in Basin Harbor. The island was at one time alternately known as ''Isle aux Chevreuils''.〔
