History
The village of DeRuyter, incorporated in 1833, was originally called Tramptown. Jan Lincklaen, an agent for the Holland Land Co., whose territory included Cazenovia and areas south, named it.
The location of the village at the confluence of the four valleys, early made DeRuyter a center of trade and the railroad forming a part of the “old Midland,” running east and west, and the Cazenovia branch running north and south and now forming part of the Lehigh Valley system, furnish excellent facilities for trade and travel.
DeRuyter previous to 1795 was included in the ancient town of Whitestown, and formed a part of the famous “Lincklaen purchase.” It was embraced in Cazenovia when that town was formed in 1795, and Col. John Lincklaen gave it the name of Tromptown; but when the act was passed by Legislature, March 15, 1798, authorizing the formation of a new town, and Col. Lincklaen named it DeRuyter, after his illustrious countryman.
The building stock dates predominantly from the early to late Victorian period, the peak population and commercial era in DeRuyter’s history.
The Seventh Day Baptist Church was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2005.
