Happy Birthday, Saratoga County!

SARATOGA COUNTY — On Feb. 7, 1791, Saratoga County was formed from its parent, Albany County. Originally, Saratoga County had four towns: Ballston, Stillwater, Halfmoon, and Saratoga. Old Saratoga historian, John Brandon describes the history of the partitions of Saratoga as “a district of country with indefinite boundaries stretching from perhaps Waterford to the State dam at Northumberland and including both sides of the river.”
