Savannah is a town in the southeast portion of Wayne County, New York, United States. The population was 1,730 at the 2010 census.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=United States Census Bureau )〕 The town has a hamlet (and census-designated place), also called Savannah. Government offices for the town are located there. == History == Fort Hill, located on the highest land in the town, is a historic native village and was the site of a Jesuit mission in the 17th Century, built by the remains of an earlier, "Owasco," village. Like other nearby towns, Savannah was part of the Central New York Military Tract. Settlers arrived in more modern times around 1808, but Savannah is considered to be the last town in the county that was settled. The Town of Savannah was created from the Town of Galen on November 24, 1824. Wiley Schoolhouse (built 1874) is a fully restored historic one-room school for the former District #11 located at the intersection of Wiley (CR 374), Hogback and Olmstead roads in the southwest part of town.〔(Wayne County Office of the County Historian - Savannah, New York ), Retrieved Feb. 3, 2015〕 The Crusoe House (built 1824), located on N.Y. Route 89 near Crusoe Lake, is currently the oldest building in the Town of Savannah. Originally a hotel and tavern, the first ever town meeting was held there in April of 1825. It also served as the first post office.〔(Wayne County GenWeb - A Short Savannah, NY History ), Retrieved Feb. 3, 2015.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Savannah, New York」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
