History

The town was settled around 1797 by families from Scotland. In 1803, the town was incorporated into New York as “Southampton”. The name later changed to “Caledonia”. The village of Caledonia was incorporated in 1891.

The village forms many associations with the adjacent hamlet of Mumford (town of Wheatland), even though they are in different counties. Wheatland was formed as the town of Inverness from the town of Caledonia in 1821. Inverness’ name later changed to “Wheatland”, as the town did not share the Scottish ancestry of Caledonia.

The fish hatchery at the north end of Caledonia village was built by Seth Green and is the oldest in the United States.

The Caledonia Fish Hatchery, Caledonia House Hotel and Clark-Keith House are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
