Information I have found myself:

• In 1807, a settlement was commenced at Liberty Falls by Roswell Russell, who, having sold out in what has since become Liberty village to William Hurd and Luther Buckley, built a saw-mill at the Falls, which he continued to run for some time, altliough Buckley bought it in 1808. Wilham Knight located here in 1808. He is still (1872) hving at Youngsville. His age exceeds ninety years. Stephen A. Gregory came in 1809, and settled on the farm now owned by Abel Gregory, senior. Two years later, when he was a lad of eleven years old, Abel walked fi'om the Falls to his native place in Fairfield county, Connecticut, to attend a common school during the cold months of winter. In the spring he returned to assist his father in clearing land, attending to crops, etc. This he continued to do year after year, until he was capable of teaching himself. Isaac Horton, an early settler, came from Delaware county. He and others bought their land of the DeWitt family of Newburgh, who once owned a large portion of this section. In 1825, Horton and Luther Buckley, built at tliis place the foiu'th grist- 344 HISTORY OF STJLLTVAN COUNTY. mill of the town. The place for many years was known a>< Hortonville. The grist-mill is now owned by Ovid, a son of Isaac Horton.
